Life & Work with Nick Scarnecchia

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nick Scarnecchia. He shares his story with us below:

Raised in Durham, N.C., Nick Scarnecchia, President of 6 & Fix Heating & Cooling Inc, is a second-generation HVAC expert. Nick began working in the HVAC industry with his father after school and quickly learned the trade. “I’ve always had a passion for the trade,” he remembers. “I am naturally mechanically inclined and grew up learning everything I could about how things work.”

Through Nick’s experiences, he realized a void for efficient, reliable, and cost-effective heating, air conditioning, and indoor quality air products and opened up 6 & Fix Heating & Cooling, Inc. “ Our skilled technicians are licensed and trained to handle routine maintenance, repairs, and replacements on residential systems and complete installations on commercial buildings,” Nick tells us.

Through the results yielded from a focus group, 6 & Fix concluded that what homeowners want the most out of an HVAC company is immediate service; customers care less about how long a business has been open versus how quickly it can provide what they need. “Through this knowledge, I knew I could set us up to serve our clients better,” explains Nick. “I decided to brand the business and structure our operations to provide same-day service for HVAC repairs.” The company’s slogan is: Call Before 6 pm and Get Your System Fixed the Same Day! “This led us to create the company name, 6 & Fix,” he says.

“We understand that people want to be informed, not sold,” Nick tells us. 6 & Fix conduct a multi-point inspection during each service. “Our customers appreciate this because we provide homeowners and realtors with a comprehensive report showing a list of all necessary and immediate repairs—this report even includes photos to back up our diagnostic,” he explains.

Looking into the future of the business, Nick is excited to see his vision unfold. “The synergy created in our company internally and externally has powered our exponential growth over the last few years,” he says. “I am blessed to have a growing team of people that work every day to help ensure this business succeeds. This makes me feel so fulfilled and inspires me to be a better leader.”

As Nick’s business is growing, so is his family. He married his wife four years ago and has two little girls. The Scarnecchias are huge Hurricane hockey fans and enjoy attending the games together. When Nick has free time on his own, he enjoys golfing.

“I hope to be remembered as a major player in my industry—someone that helped change the status quo of how my industry has always operated,” Nick tells us. “But in defining success in life, I think you should be proud of what you’ve created.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Navigating the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic was tough, as it was for all small businesses. However, we focused more on our indoor air quality services and actually grew in 2020. We managed to employ additional people rather than laying anyone off.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
In the last several years we started offering Daikin HVAC products. Their 12-year product warranty is unmatched in the industry and we are proud to be able to offer a better warranty to our customers than our competitors. Daikin has long been a global leader in HVAC products and is finally starting to make a name for itself in the United States. We are currently a top 20 Daikin dealer in the country.
