About Us
From the start, Homesense co-founders Brian Schutt and Jesse Cross sought to create a different kind of company, one built on timeless values. Integrity. Trust. Honesty. Empathy. Timeless — yet revolutionary. The corporate world may talk about these values; Homesense infuses them in every action and every interaction.
The philosophy on which Homesense was founded in 2009 — that building a business that homeowners can trust takes precedence over chasing profits — continues to guide this Indianapolis HVAC company.
Brian and Jesse met as students at Purdue’s Krannert School of Business and maintained a strong friendship. They started their careers wearing suits in corporate America, with stints at KPMG and Wells Fargo respectively. Brian’s route took him towards communications and marketing roles, while Jesse worked in the high-test world of investment real estate. Both realized that it wasn’t the path for them.
They also realized that there was a need for change in the HVAC industry. Brian says, “We were different from the start… Our approach was to build a company based on timeless values, hire people we would want in our own homes, and build processes that supported our integrity promise that we believed would lead to long term client relationships.”
Over a decade later, Homesense has become the reassuring voice on the other end of a frantic emergency call and the trusted solution for enhanced homeowners’ comfort, safety, and efficiency.
