Harrison M. Forsyth 1918 - 1999

BHV Sheet Metal Fabricators was founded in 1954 by Harrison "Harry" Forsyth, as Binghamton Heating & Ventilating, a sheet metal and heating contractor in upstate New York. When the company quickly developed a reputation for its integrity, and high-quality architectural and industrial sheet metal work, the road to success was found.

After many years of furnishing specialty and production fabrication for local and regional sheet metal contractors and distributors, the company decided to concentrate its efforts on the manufacturing sector of the business. In 1987, BHV discontinued operation of its contract installation and service divisions to operate as a manufacturer and distributor of HVAC and architectural sheet metal products and accessories, under the identity of BHV Sheet Metal Fabricators.

Since 1987, BHV has grown to include manufacturing plants in upstate New York and Western North Carolina, and an active customer list covering the Eastern U.S. and Caribbean markets. Under the direction of the Company's present management team, and using its founder's original philosophy and ethical business practices, BHV continues to maintain a reputation throughout the industry for high-quality sheet metal products and services.

BHV's success is the result of the efforts of a highly skilled and dedicated staff of management and production workers. Due to this success, expansion plans are currently under way for both manufacturing and distribution facilities.
