Our History
At Quality Systems Heating & Cooling, heating and cooling isn’t just a trade—it’s a family tradition built on dedication, craftsmanship, and service. Our story began during World War II, when Larry Thompson’s father learned the HVAC trade as a Seabee. Inspired by his father’s work ethic and success, Larry continued the legacy by founding a business rooted in honesty and reliability.
Today, the third generation—Michael, Andrew, and Elissa—carry the torch. Each brings fresh, high-tech expertise while upholding the values that shaped our company from the start. As a family-owned and operated business, we take great pride in treating every customer like family.
From routine service and repair to energy-efficient installations, our team is committed to delivering the best possible HVAC solutions—with fair pricing, transparent communication, and a no-hassle experience.
