Our Story
Home Caprice started with the idea of helping every house owner make the right purchasing decisions regarding heating and cooling products or helping homeowners with any HVAC-related issues.
This all seemed to be the case when our founder, Ben, was moving into the first apartment that he bought and had to deal with all of the heating and cooling solutions for his home for the very first time.
As with everything, his research has begun with searching for solutions online, but he has found that most of the information available was either too complicated or filled with too much commercial content.
At that time, and still today, most websites were filled with sponsored content that wasn’t beneficial to readers. It’s beneficial to large corporations.
This is how Home Caprice was started – to help ordinary people like you and me understand the complex world of HVAC and make purchasing, fixing, or installing HVAC equipment much more straightforward.
Our Mission
We at Home Caprice want to make the change and help people make informed decisions with our reviews, tutorials, in-depth research, and video content that stands out.
After our work started to be recognized by happy readers, our mission is no longer to help people make the right decisions – we want to become an online library and all-in-one place where readers can inform themselves about any topic related to HVAC systems or heating & cooling.
With a different range of topics and categories, we’re building a knowledge base where our readers can learn something new daily.
We’re well aware of the lack of information on these topics, so we often talk with experts and professionals to share new information that can’t be found online.
We are committed to always going further and delivering the highest-quality content with hours of research and fact-checking before sharing it with our readers.
Our mission is not to be just a blog. We’re here to become an HVAC online library available everywhere.
We will always put our readers’ interests first and work for people to make their lives easier.
