History

The company has its roots back to the 1930’s. It was originally founded by A.H. Beloske. He sold Sarco steam specialties and Pick water heaters to industrial and wholesale accounts throughout western Illinois and eastern Iowa. John Bowman joined the company in 1960 and founded W. John Bowman & Associates, Inc. in 1964, when Mr. Beloske retired. John Bowman increased the products lines to include air moving and heating products. Irv Patch joined the company in 1966 and remained until he retired in 1995. In 1980 the company moved to its present location. This office and warehouse allows space for stocking many of the products it represents.  The company has grown from its beginning to have 5 salesmen, 2 inside support staff and represents over 20 major manufactures of heating, ventilation and filtration equipment. In the year of 2000, John Bowman stepped down and we shortened the company name to Bowman & Associates, Inc. The current sales staff has over 100 years of combined experience in sales and support for our industrial, commercial, and contracting customers.
