Barron KARES
Kindness, Appreciation, Response, Empathy, and Service
Barron KARES is our commitment to sharing kindness and appreciation within our community through a hands-on response rooted in empathy and service. Each month, we shine a spotlight on a different charity or non-profit organization that holds high esteem among Team Barron and within the communities we serve. Barron KARES provides a charitable donation of $110 on select purchases, such as tankless water heaters, heat pumps, solar installations, generators, and more.
Why $110? It carries a profound significance rooted in the wisdom of our owner John Barron’s mentor, who advised, "Go above and beyond your call of duty—push past 100, give 110% every time." This philosophy of exceeding expectations has become a guiding principle for us. John and Brad Barron, his son and company CEO, personify this commitment in every aspect of their work and inspire the greater Barron team to do the same.
With Barron KARES, we see our commitment as more than a monetary donation. It represents a dedication to making a tangible, positive impact on the causes and individuals we support. By featuring a different charity or non-profit each month, we hope to help illuminate organizations that align with our values and resonate with our team and communities.
Being a family-run business since 1972 has instilled in us a deep appreciation for the community. Our Mission: Improving Lives™ is not just a tagline; it encapsulates our enduring commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve. Through Barron KARES, we extend this commitment, ensuring that Kindness, Appreciation, Response, Empathy, and Service are not just words but principles we actively live by.

This August, Barron KARES is proud to support Happy Tails Happy Homes, a nonprofit animal rescue dedicated to giving overlooked dogs the love, care, and second chances they deserve.
Founded in 2011 by longtime animal advocates Vicki Niles and Nicki Larson, Happy Tails Happy Homes specializes in rescuing the "underdogs"—dogs with medical or behavioral challenges that other rescues are often unable to accept. Through a network of dedicated foster families and volunteers, every donation goes directly toward providing medical care, rehabilitation, and loving homes for animals in need.
Guided by their motto, "Once a Happy Tails Happy Homes Dog, Always a Happy Tails Happy Homes Dog," the organization remains committed to every dog they rescue, whether that means finding the perfect forever home or providing lifelong care through their foster program.
Throughout August, Barron KARES will donate $110 from every qualifying system sold to support Happy Tails Happy Homes. Eligible purchases include heat pumps, air conditioners, furnaces, tankless water heaters, solar, generators, and more.
Together, we can help give more dogs a second chance—because every dog deserves love, respect, and a place to call home.
Plus, our partner Daikin is joining the effort by donating an additional $100 for every Daikin and Barron Private FIT system sold, helping make an even greater impact for these dogs. Together, every qualifying Daikin and Barron Private Label FIT installation generates $210 in support of Happy Tails Happy Homes.
Thank you to Happy Tails Happy Homes for the compassion and dedication you show to animals in need every day. With your support as a Barron customer, we're proud to help give more dogs the second chance they deserve. Every purchase helps make a difference.
