Hunt’s Services has been named a 2026 winner in The Seattle Times Best in the PNW awards in four categories, including the gold for Best Plumbing Services. The company also received bronze awards for Best Heat & Air Company, Best Electrical Services, and Best Air Duct Cleaning. This post covers the company’s Best in the PNW recognition, including what the awards program is, the service standards behind the recognition, and its community outreach through Hunt’s Helping Hands.
What Is The Seattle Times Best in the PNW?
The Seattle Times Best in the PNW is an annual awards program that recognizes businesses, organizations, and professionals serving the Pacific Northwest. Its categories cover areas such as food and drink, health and beauty, home and garden, and more.
Best in the PNW winners are chosen by the community rather than a panel. Members of the public first nominate the businesses they want to see recognized, and those nominations are then moved to an official ballot for voting. Because the results come from local voters, a Best in the PNW award reflects the experiences of people who have worked with a business directly.
Gold for Plumbing and Bronze in Three More Categories
The three bronze awards cover other main trades Hunt’s Services provides. The Best Heat & Air Company award reflects its heating and air conditioning services, from furnace and air conditioner services to ductless heat pumps and emergency repairs. The Best Electrical Services award covers work such as electrical panels, outlets, lighting, rewiring, EV charging stations, and generator services. The Best Air Duct Cleaning award recognizes its duct cleaning and indoor air quality services. Earning awards in four separate categories shows that voters recognized the company across all of its trades.
The Service Standards Behind the Recognition
The company also backs its work with the No Worries Warranty, which covers every service and includes up to 15 years of labor warranty coverage on major installations. Owner Jason Hunt stands behind every service and installation, and the company will work to make it right if any issue occurs, even personally stepping in to ensure it is addressed.
Giving Back Through Hunt’s Helping Hands
Hunt’s Helping Hands is the community outreach initiative of Hunt’s Services, founded by owner Jason Hunt in 2019. The program supports individuals and families throughout Tacoma, Seattle, and the greater Puget Sound. Its Adopt-a-School Program provides complete school supply kits for local elementary students. Through Helping Hands Giveaways, the company donates water heaters, heating and air conditioning systems, and other essential home upgrades to local families who need them most.
Hunt’s Helping Hands also works with local organizations such as Carol Milgard Breast Center, Tacoma Rescue Mission, Daikin, and Rocket Convenience Stores. They proudly support Carol Milgard Breast Center through an Advancing Early Breast Cancer Detection Campaign, helping fund the center’s financial assistance program and providing mammograms for uninsured and underinsured community members. The team also volunteers at local outreach events, and Hunt’s Services sponsors the Tacoma Home Show. They go beyond home services, giving back and making a lasting difference for their community.
