history

The company was founded in the summer of 1884 under the company Hannoversche Centralheizungs- und Apparate-Bau-Anstalt in the legal form of a stock corporation . The share capital was initially 300,000 marks and was increased in several steps. The newly issued shares in the third capital increase in 1899, show the signature of Hanover entrepreneur Julius von Königswarter ( "Baron von Königswarter") as representative of the Supervisory Board , whose family held probably a significant proportion of shares - still in 1925, his son was sitting Wilhelm Königswarter in Supervisory board. On March 19, 1903, the company was renamed Centralheizungswerke AG . Since the fifth capital increase in 1911, the share capital has been 1,575,000 marks. The company's shares were traded on the Berlin and Hanover stock exchanges.

During the First World War , Centralheizungswerke AG, like almost all companies, produced goods essential to the war effort .

After the war, the share capital in the German inflation was increased in several steps up to 15 million marks, although in these years a " ruinous competition in the [entire] industry " took place. After the end of inflation, it was decided in December 1924 to convert the capital to 1 million Reichsmarks . In the following year, 1925, the company stopped production and limited itself to assembling the systems that had already been manufactured. Another year later, in 1926, the settlement procedure was applied for, after which the company was liquidated .

In a subsequent auction in 1927 was AG for heating and ventilation, Hannover (vorm. Fritz Käferle ) the contract for the commercial - property at the cottage road.
