Utility companies are using ratepayer dollars to compete directly against private HVAC contractors. MCFFC is fighting back — with a powerful, unified voice that unites both union and non-union members.
MCFFC is one of the few organizations in Missouri that unites both union and non-union HVAC professionals under a single banner. This rare coalition creates an extraordinarily powerful grassroots force — one that speaks for the entire industry, not just one side. When we show up at the Capitol, lawmakers listen.
The Missouri Coalition for Fair Competition (MCFFC) was formed to protect independent HVAC business owners, supply houses, and their employees from the growing threat of utility company overreach.
Utilities like Ameren have been rolling out programs that allow them to compete directly against private businesses — funded by the very ratepayers those businesses serve. MCFFC ensures Missouri's laws reflect fair market principles.
We monitor and engage the Missouri legislature to stop harmful utility-sponsored policies before they're enacted.
We keep members informed about regulatory threats, policy changes, and emerging challenges to your business.
Union and non-union contractors standing together — a rare, powerful alliance that amplifies our impact at the Capitol.
We fight to ensure utilities cannot leverage ratepayer dollars to undercut the private businesses you've built.
Since 1998, MCFFC has been the frontline defense for Missouri's HVAC industry against unfair utility competition.
Programs backed by utility giants like Ameren are creating an uneven playing field for independent HVAC contractors across Missouri.
Utilities use money collected from their captive ratepayer base to fund HVAC programs that directly compete with independent contractors — an inherently unfair advantage no private business can match.
Utility-backed programs bypass traditional supply houses and disrupt established distribution channels, threatening jobs throughout the entire HVAC supply chain.
Utilities employ experienced lobbyists who push new legislation every year. Without MCFFC's watchdog, these threats can become law before the industry even knows they exist.
Our coalition is led by experienced HVAC professionals who understand firsthand what's at stake for Missouri's industry.
