Our Core Values
The Kitchen Energy Solutions commitment, direct from our CEO

01
Integrity

It’s what you do when nobody’s looking.

We take Integrity extremely seriously here, as we built the business from it. Our customers know they can trust us! It’s therefore only fitting that we write this into our company handbook. Only sincerely integrity filled people may work with us!

 

02
Responsiveness

We are America’s most responsive Firm.

We react quickly and in a positive way to our team or customers. All inquiries are acknowledged by the end of the day, because everybody deserves to know what’s happening with their requests.

03
Teamwork

We all work together towards achieving the company vision.

We treat all team members with the same level of respect and gratitude. It makes no difference if you’re a field technician, an accountant, a human resources person, a project manager or the CEO – there would be no company without any of us. Only together do we make up our great team.

04
Wellness

We look after our physical and mental health, safety, and the health of others!

Your physical safety at the job site! There are always physical dangers at a construction job site and we take this very seriously. We insist that you follow all safety rules, by taking care of yourself and others.

Your mental health; state of well-being that enables you to enjoy your profession and personal life. We acknowledge that most of us have “stuff” that we are dealing with. As a company, we want to be there for you and listen to questions or concerns.

05
Always Improving

We believe in constantly learning and becoming better at our job. Learning never ends!

Learning is a lifelong journey, and we expect our team to embrace this. We will help train you; we will guide you along, but we have strict expectations of continuous learning and accomplishments. We believe mastery is a perpetual goal.

06
All In

Be engaged, love what you do, be proud of your expertise, be happy to be here!

Our CEO’s favorite Core Value! We want you as our team member because you enjoy being here and not because it is a paycheck. We highly encourage team members to seek better opportunities elsewhere when they are no longer engaged with us! Only with ALL-IN team members can we accomplish our vision.

What KES Team Members Are Saying

I take pride in being part of a company that values its employees and fosters a strong sense of teamwork. I have been a technician at Kitchen Energy and Airadigm Solutions for the past decade. I can confidently say that I love my job. The rewarding nature of the work, combined with the camaraderie, has made my time here remarkable. Looking forward to many more years of success and growth with this fantastic team.
Matt O.  Current Employee
This company in the year and half that I have been with them, has provided me with support and guidance along the way, resulting in passing my NEBB certification. After working in the mechanical field for about 15 years, I made the transition to Kitchen Energy and Airadigm Solutions. I’ve come to understand the benefits and importance this field entails. Being able to show up to work every day learning new skills and knowledge that I did not have prior. Being able to complete jobs in a timely manner and providing great customer service is what I pride myself on. I will continue to be grateful and dedicated to working as a technician with KES and Airadigm.
Jeremy W.  Current Employee
The growth opportunities at Kitchen Energy and Airadigm Solutions are unparalleled. Over 15 years I have been able to grow from assisting on test and balance projects to become the National Installation Manager for Kitchen Energy Solutions. Working for KES allows me to keep learning every day and working through challenging projects to produce a great system and installation for the customer. The work is extremely rewarding knowing we are saving energy and helping our customers save money. I’m looking forward to being a part of the KES team for many more years.
