Family-Owned and Operated for Decades

We have a history as a company that stretches back to the early 1900s, when we were founded by Walt Hamilton as Baxter Oil. On January 1, 1928, Louis DeJong purchased the company, and to this day it is still owned and managed by members of the DeJong family. Current owner Dylan DeJong is part of the fourt generation of the family to operate the business, and he’s committed to maintaining the company’s long tradition of delivering excellence.

The many decades of family ownership have instilled in all of us a strong dedication to customer service and a knowledge of the integrity required to instill the highest trust in our customers. We have won numerous awards and are members of the Iowa Geothermal Association, the Greater Des Moines Heating & Cooling Association, and the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association.
