About E.A.C. Heating & Air
Proudly Serving the Lowcountry for 45+ Years
E.A.C. Heating & Air stands apart from the competition in Beaufort and Jasper counties with an unmatched local legacy, top-tier customer satisfaction, industry-leading certifications and awards, and comprehensive, customer-focused services. Put simply, we offer a level of trust and quality that typical HVAC companies can’t match.
One of EAC’s greatest strengths is our deep local roots and family ownership. The Epperson family has been serving homeowners and businesses across Hilton Head, Bluffton, and the surrounding areas since 1981, building a legacy of trust one job at a time. While our current company, E.A.C. Heating & Air, was officially founded in 2005 by Patrick Epperson Jr. (son of Pat Epperson Sr.) and partner Martin H. Jones (who passed away in 2024), it was created to continue the values and customer commitment of the original family business. In 2007, Pat Epperson Sr. himself joined E.A.C. Heating & Air as a co-owner, reuniting the family's HVAC service tradition under one banner.
Today, when you call E.A.C. Heating & Air, you'll work with a Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer whose NATE-certified technicians have grown up in this area, live here, and understand exactly what local homes and commercial properties need to stay comfortable year-round.

No Call Centers, Only Personal Service
When you call us, you’ll reach real people who know our area. During office hours, our polite Hilton Head Island office staff will take care of you directly. After hours (nights, weekends, and holidays), we use a professional answering service, but only to be sure you can get the 24/7 emergency assistance you deserve.
One of the things Pat Epperson Sr. proudly noted when re-establishing a family firm was that all our phone lines ring locally, not at some distant corporate office. That remains true to this day. This commitment to responsiveness and personal service is something you won’t find with the big-box HVAC companies.
In short, E.A.C. Heating & Air offers the stability and trust of a company that’s been part of the community for generations, combined with the personalized touch of a family business. We’re deeply rooted here, and we care about our reputation, which means we care about doing right by you. That’s not just talk.
Our efforts have allowed us to earn multiple industry and community accolades, including the Carrier President’s Award for three consecutive years (2015–2017), as well as top local honors such as Hilton Head Monthly’s Reader’s Choice Award, Bluffton Today’s Best of Bluffton, and recognition as the Lowcountry’s Best Heat & Air Company. Most importantly, we've gained the trust of countless people in Hilton Head Island and beyond. See for yourself by visiting our reviews page.
