Air Comfort Service Group Joins the Astra Service Partners Network, Expanding Commercial HVAC & Food Services into the New York City Metropolitan Area

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Astra Service Partners ("Astra"), a network of market-leading commercial and industrial mechanical service providers, announced today that Air Comfort Service Group ("ACSG") has joined its network, effective March 12, 2026. This partnership brings Astra into the greater New York City metropolitan area with ACSG’s top-tier commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and kitchen equipment service expertise. ACSG will continue to drive growth and deliver the highest level of customer service, supported by the resources and platform of the Astra network. The announcement marks Astra's entry into one of the largest and most dynamic commercial field services markets in the country.

Founded in 2001 by Tom Gindele, ACSG has grown for more than two decades into a team of over 80 skilled technicians and service professionals, earning a trusted reputation among commercial facilities across New York. ACSG serves clients across food service, healthcare, and high-end real estate, providing service in air conditioning, refrigeration, and commercial kitchen equipment repair.

At the heart of ACSG's growth is a customer-first philosophy that Gindele and his three partners have instilled since day one. “Finding the right partners means everything,” said Tom Gindele, Founder of Air Comfort Service Group. “Treating our customers the way we would want to be treated is key. When we met Astra, we knew right away they believed the same thing. Together, we’ll be able to grow the right way.”

Astra invests in exceptional service companies and provides the operational resources, talent infrastructure, and capital where needed to grow those businesses for decades to come while preserving the culture and customer relationships that made them great. ACSG represents Astra's first presence in the New York market and deepens the network's reach across the nation.
