Community Impact at Down East Heating & Air
Rooted in Community. Built on Service.
At Down East Heating & Air, we’ve always believed that showing up matters — not just in homes, but for the people who live in them. As a community-involved HVAC company serving Eastern North Carolina and Northern Coastal South Carolina, our work goes beyond heating and cooling systems.
Since 1986, we’ve supported the people and places that make this region special. From local schools and youth athletics to families facing unexpected hardship, our commitment has remained the same: serve with integrity, give with purpose, and invest in the communities that trust us.
Giving Back Where It Counts
This community is home to us. Our team lives here, raises families here, and stays closely connected to the neighborhoods we serve. We’re proud to be the team people call, not just when something breaks, but when a school needs a sponsor or a neighbor needs support.
Here are just a few ways we continue investing in the communities that have supported us:
- Sponsorship of local high school and youth athletics
- Annual HVAC unit giveaways for deserving families
- Teacher appreciation events with classroom support
- Volunteer support for Wreaths Across America
- Fellowship of Christian Athletes fundraising and golf tournaments
- Onslow Habitat for Humanity Duck Derby sponsorship
- Trick-or-Treat at the Ballpark with the Myrtle Beach Pelicans
- Local ticket giveaways and radio promotions
- Sponsorship of the New River YMCA Annual Impact Fund
Each of these touchpoints is a reflection of our values: family, service, and integrity.
See Us in Action
You’ll find our team (and our mascot Easton) across Eastern North Carolina and the Myrtle Beach area — at school events, charity fundraisers, ballgames, and anywhere neighbors come together. From Dancing Stars of Onslow County to rec league weekends, we show up, pitch in, and have a good time doing it!
After four decades of moments like these, it’s clear our story has been shaped by the community just as much as by the people we serve.
Explore Our Community Programs
Our community involvement includes several dedicated initiatives that reflect our commitment to service, generosity, and long-term impact.
HVAC Donation Program
Once a year, we donate and install free air conditioning systems for local families in need. This giveaway is designed for families walking through a difficult season, whether that’s illness, job loss, or unexpected hardship. We believe everyone deserves to feel safe and comfortable at home.
Youth Sponsorships
We believe strong communities are built by investing in the next generation. That’s why we support local youth programs, schools, and student athletes — investing in leadership, confidence, and opportunity for years to come.
Dancing Stars of Onslow County
This annual charity event unites local leaders and community members to raise awareness and support for survivors served by the Onslow Victims Center. Through advocacy, fundraising, and community partnership, the event helps provide free and confidential services to individuals and families facing domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.
We’re proud to stand behind a cause that brings hope and healing to our region.
Let’s Build Something Together
Comfort isn’t just about temperature, it’s about stability, support, and knowing your community cares — and that’s a legacy we’re proud to continue.
We’re always up for a chance to support the people and places that make this community what it is. If you’ve got an event coming up, a cause close to your heart, or someone you think deserves a little extra help: let us know! We’d love to be part of it.
