• Auburn Sheet Metal & Heating, Inc. will become Treat’s Heating & Cooling, Inc., beginning Nov. 1.

The Treat family has been in business since the company was originally established in Auburn in 1973. Dave Treat then bought the company from his parents and moved it to Bonney Lake. The company then moved to Enumclaw nearly four years ago to be located in the community Treat calls home with his wife, JoAnne.

While the business is physically located in Enumclaw, according to Dave Treat, “The service area extends in an average 30 to 40 mile radius, and we needed a name that better reflects that. We still provide sheet metal work, but the bulk of our company business has always been installing and maintaining heating and cooling products, with the recent addition of duct cleaning.”
