Raised in San Antonio, John Bianchi was forced to leave formal schooling before graduating in order to support himself. While still a teenager, John joined the U.S. Navy in 1974, with his first duty station being in Hawaii. During his five year tour with the Navy, John was formally trained in working on air conditioning and refrigeration systems of all kinds.

With a strong work ethic, exhibited through his punctuality, hard work, after-hour’s studies, and attention to detail, John advanced rapidly through the ranks with the Navy achieving numerous promotions. John’s final duty station was aboard the first nuclear powered aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. Enterprise, CVN -65. This assignment required John to be given top secret clearance and he was placed in charge of the critical electronics cooling system, a massive amount of equipment located in different areas throughout the carrier, which included areas of navigation, solar, radar, automatic landing systems for aircraft, officer support facilities, and more. This assignment was very demanding and offered a great deal of on-the-job training and required a can-do attitude.

Adhering to high standards and always willing to learn, John received a number of Navy commendations during his tour of duty. Immediately after leaving the Navy, John hired on with Refrigeration Engineering Corp., now owned by York International, where he began servicing large industrial ammonia refrigeration systems in food processing and petrochemical plants all over the country. Tiring of traveling, John accepted a position at the H.E.B. distribution plant in San Antonio in the mid 1980s, servicing their large refrigeration systems. After working with H.E.B. for a time, John requested and received a transfer to a different department that serviced the refrigeration systems in their growing store locations and worked in this area for several years.

Through contact with different owners and managers and years of experience in refrigeration, John determined that San Antonio was being underserved in the refrigeration area and felt that he could serve this area well. With the goal of providing professional, ethical, and prompt servicing to the industrial refrigeration needs of the business community, John founded the San Antonio based J. Anthony’s Refrigeration, Inc. in 1988. Through contacts made during his time with H.E.B. and his years in the field, John was able to quickly build a list of regular customers.

Again, through sheer hard work and dedication, John and his dedicated team of qualified and capable technicians have been able to establish J. Anthony’s Refrigeration, Inc.’s reputation for great, honest service and grow the company into a successful business servicing the greater San Antonio area. His wife, Debbie Bianchi, joined the company in 1998 as office manager and has provided outstanding organizational skills to his growing business. She has become a great asset to the company.

Faced with a tax problem, John was referred to Steve by a friend, who was also a client of Steve’s. In addition to solving the tax problem, Steve has consistently provided pro-active tax saving advice. John has been a satisfied client for almost 20 years.
