| Our History Wilson AC & Appliance was founded in 1949 by J.W. Wilson, Jr. and his wife, Lurline. Upon his return from serving in the Pacific during WWII, J.W. decided to learn about television and radio repair, even though the only tv station on the air at that time was Channel 4 out of San Antonio. J.W. took a course on television repair and began serving an area between San Antonio and Austin. Sixty years later, the company is still family owned and operated by Trey and Gay Lynn Wilson and continues to serve a large portion of Austin and the Hill Country. Though no longer in the television and radio arena, Wilson AC & Appliance has focused its energy around selling and servicing the best appliance and central air conditioning products available, as well as offering kitchen and bath cabinet design, sales and installation. |
