The beginning of AURORA – In the early decades of the 1900s, in the city of Leipzig, Germany, Konrad G. Schulz first realized the potential desires for Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning in mobile applications. The first milestone began with the installation of a small water heater in a Ford Model-A. This initial spark began the fires of innovation that would transform Aurora into a key player in the development and optimization of complete HVAC-Systems for a wide range of mobile vehicles and applications.



AURORA is a global manufacturer of specialized HVAC systems and components for a wide assortment of on and off road vehicles. AURORA is recognized for its innovative designs and broad product offering. From individual components; such as louvers, water valves, and blowers, to complex fully automatic temperature controlled HVAC systems, customers around the globe put their trust in AURORA for all their climate control needs.
