ARS Honors Community Heroes Across America

American Residential Services (ARS), a prominent name in HVAC and plumbing services, has taken a heartfelt initiative to recognize and reward the exceptional contributions of community heroes. Through its ARS Cares program, the company aims to uplift individuals who selflessly dedicate their lives to serving others, including first responders, healthcare professionals, military veterans, and educators. This year, more than 45 deserving families will benefit from completely new HVAC systems or water heater installations, making a significant impact on their comfort and quality of life at home.

Celebrating Selfless Service

In December 2025, ARS is rolling out its community service efforts as an extension of their long-standing corporate social responsibility commitment. Scott Boose, CEO of ARS/Rescue Rooter, expressed the motivation behind this program: “The ARS Cares program is all about recognizing the selfless sacrifice of our community heroes. Witnessing the overwhelming support from families and friends in the nominations has been nothing short of heartwarming.” This initiative not only acknowledges the efforts of these individuals but also aims to provide tangible benefits that can alleviate some of the stresses of daily life.

The process for identifying these heroes began when family members, friends, and co-workers submitted nominations describing why the individuals deserved home improvements. Local ARS branches evaluated the nominations and selected recipients to receive essential upgrades to their homes, with actual work commencing in November.

A History of Giving Back

The ARS Cares program was established in 2016 with the intention of giving back to the communities in which ARS operates. Since inception, the program has made substantial contributions, completing over 350 home services makeovers and donating more than $3.2 million worth of equipment and services to those in need. This commitment not only enhances the living conditions of recipients but serves as a testament to the company’s dedication to community welfare.

“It's an honor for us to be able to give back in this way and to show our gratitude,” said Boose. The installations are designed to improve heating and cooling efficiency while also promoting better indoor air quality, thus creating a healthier environment for families.

Looking Ahead

As ARS continues to expand its reach and grow its Cares program, the company remains committed to honoring and acknowledging the unsung heroes of our neighborhoods. This initiative serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of community service and the remarkable impact it can have on individuals and families alike.

For anyone interested in learning more about the ARS Cares program or looking to nominate a community hero for future enhancements, detailed information can be found on the ARS website. ARS encourages all communities to participate in recognizing and celebrating those who dedicate their lives to making a difference.

As ARS paves the way for future initiatives, the ripple effect of such programs can be felt throughout neighborhoods across the nation—transforming lives, uplifting spirits, and perhaps most importantly, reminding us all of the power of community and care.
