Goodrich will manage 34 service branches in Colorado, Utah, Oregon, Washington and Northern and Central California, and he will continue to oversee ARSŪ/Rescue RooterŪ's operations in Nevada, Arizona and Southern California. As the top local executive, Goodrich will spearhead the expansion and acquisition efforts in the western zone, and carry out the company's vision to be the premier service provider and employer in the HVAC and plumbing service industries.
"Ken has been vital to the growth of ARSŪ/Rescue RooterŪ throughout the southwest and he's responsible for the acquisition of a number of quality service providers throughout the region," said Dave Slott, president and chief operating officer of ARSŪ/Rescue RooterŪ. "Under Ken's direction, we look forward to further expansion and I'm confident he will continue to take our company to new levels of success."
Goodrich is a licensed General, HVAC & plumbing contractor in both Nevada and Arizona and a constituent of the Goodman Manufacturing President's Club. Throughout his 20-year career, Goodrich has received numerous awards and accolades from industry organizations. The Las Vegas Business Press named him one of the "Top 40 Under 40." He was also honored by Home Depot as one of the Top 25 National HVAC Contractors in 2007 and Business Professional of the Year by Success Group International in 2005.
In 1997, Goodrich sold his companies, Racee Air Conditioning & Heating, Lang Refrigeration and Economy Air Conditioning, to ARS.

Plumbing and Sunset Sheet Metal & Air Conditioning, to ARS.
