From the ground up

OmniDuct is a leading HVAC( heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) ductwork manufacturer. Founded in 1982 by Ed Brumleu, it remains a family-owned and operated company, under the stewardship of his grandson, third generation CEO, Kyle Brumleu. We spoke with Kyle and President and COO Jon Collins to uncover what drives OmniDuct’ s longevity and continued success.“ My grandfather was a salesman for a company manufacturing round ductwork and insulation,” Kyle explains.“ The company went bankrupt, and with a desire to keep servicing his customers, he found a way to buy the business out of bankruptcy. From there, we focused on manufacturing and began incorporating rectangular ductwork. Over the years we continued to expand, opening locations across California, and eventually in Phoenix and Seattle. We recently moved our headquarters to Buena Park, California, as well.”
