THE GENZ-RYAN Background
Our Story
In 1997, the leadership of the company transitioned to the capable hands of John Ryan’s sons: Dan, Mike, Bob, and Jon. Under their guidance, the company continued its tradition of integrity and innovation. Embracing new technologies, Genz-Ryan became pioneers in introducing cutting-edge solutions to homeowners across the Twin Cities area. Over the years, Genz-Ryan expanded its services beyond plumbing to include heating, cooling, and indoor air quality solutions. Their dedication to staying ahead of the curve led them to master new products and services, such as ultra-energy-efficient HVAC systems and tankless water heaters, cementing their reputation as industry leaders and innovators.
In 2017, Jon Ryan assumed sole ownership of Genz-Ryan, marking a significant milestone in the company’s history. Under his visionary leadership, the business embarked on a path of innovation and expansion. That very year, Genz-Ryan enhanced its service offerings by incorporating electrical solutions into its portfolio. This strategic decision underscored the company’s dedication to meeting the evolving needs of homeowners and providing holistic solutions for residential properties.
Despite evolving with the times, one thing has remained constant: Genz-Ryan’s unwavering commitment to delivering the highest quality professional services and exceptional customer service at every turn. This dedication has been pivotal in maintaining their position as a trusted name in the industry, ensuring customer satisfaction remains at the forefront of everything they do.

I had Jason come to do a water tank flush and inspection. He did a nice job explaining what he was doing and also showed me the inside of our tank using a camera that was at the end of a long snake type wire that could be manipulated show all parts of the interior of the tank. He pointed out that the tank was in pretty good shape with little rust, but the magnesium rod was in rough shape and probably should be replaced. He explained all the option we had to repair or replace the tank. I decided to replace the magnesium rod with the newer version at this time. He did the work in a timely and professional manner and was on his way! I was pleased with the entire experience. Jason is a good ambassador for Genz-Ryan!

From the time Andrew came into my home until the time he left, he was very knowledgeable and upfront. He was honest about what was wrong with my furnace , and the best way to go about fixing it or replacing it. I ended up replacing the furnace along with the ac unit. I would definitely do business again and recommend to anyone

We had a free Electrical checkup and a few items were suggested to repair. They were not hard sell on anything on the list which I appreciated. We ended up having a few things done and then actually added a few things that we needed done but never had time so we requested they be added to the quote. The technician ended up spending 2 days working on all the things we needed done and he did an Awesome Job,
We were very happy with our technician and his professional friendly attitude, he was great at explaining every item he was doing. Over all great experience
