Our story is unique, because it's the story that God has given us to walk in, steward, and continue in. Like any great story, we've had our ups and downs. But through it all, God has blessed us in more ways than we can count.
After completing his time in the Navy, Pat Quill wanted to establish a business to provide for his family and pass on a legacy to future generations. It was in 1995 that he started Carolina HVAC with a Mitsubishi Mighty Max truck, a plastic tool box, and a pager on his hip. The service calls began rolling in. A folding table for a desk, a home office, and a bag phone followed soon after.
As soon as Pat’s son Kyle graduated high school, he joined his dad’s team. After working side by side for over 20 years, the two became business partners in 2018.
Starting and growing a business isn't a very easy thing to do. We've had some growing pains since 1995. But with God, great customers, and lots of elbow grease, we've grown quite a bit since then.
We believe in hiring team members who are individuals of high character, who show integrity and kindness even in the toughest situations. Pat, Kyle, and their team strive to serve their customers with the respect and dignity that they deserve, and treat them like they would want to be treated.
The values we base our company on are honoring God, providing quality craftsmanship, and serving with integrity.
We believe that a company’s values, work-ethic, and consistency, begins with its owners. We are committed to demonstrating all of the values and ethics we desire each team-member to demonstrate. In other words, walk the walk.
Kyle joined the family business in 2006 working as a technician. He quickly climbed the ranks into management positions, and in 2017 became a co-owner. In 2023 he assumed the role as President.
Kyle and his wife Rebecca have two young children, Kenzie and Duke, who love to "go to work" and hang out with the the Carolina HVAC & Electrical team. Kyle is passionate about living life on mission, whether it's at work, at home, or in his faith. Kyle & Rebecca serve as board members for Jamaica Relief Ministries, a children's home ministry.
After leaving a career in the Navy after 10 years, where he served as a Petty Officer First Class, Pat, his wife Patti, and their young family moved back to their home state of New York. After a period of adjusting back to civilian life, the family settled down in South Carolina and started up Carolina HVAC. Pat has exemplified a life of service, not only in his naval career, but also in the ministry at several churches. Pat and Patti are both currently in the process of becoming faith based counselors in order to continue their life of service as they look towards retirement.
We emphasize the importance of leadership, and we put our money where our mouth is. Every leader has learned from the ground up, has shown they have what it takes, and has undertaken many levels of training.
