BelRed Heating, Cooling & Plumbing

Bellevue / Eastside

One record from the Bellevue ownership pilot. Ownership status is not a quality rating, and this page is a permanent link to the evidence behind one claim — how the labels work.

← All 21 records
Ownership pathBelRed → Apex Service Partners → Alpine Investors

BelRed was sold to Apex Service Partners in 2022. Alpine lists Apex as a current HVAC, plumbing and electrical platform. In May 2026 Apex and Alpine announced a minority investment by Apollo funds, expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026; Alpine remains the controlling investor. BelRed files under the same UBI as Gene Johnson, whose state record names an Apex holding company as a principal.
