Stoudenmire Heating & Air Conditioning

Stoudenmire Heating & Air Conditioning has kept Columbia, South Carolina comfortable since 1959, making it one of the oldest continuously operating HVAC contractors in the Midlands. The family-owned business now runs a fleet of 15 service vehicles staffed by 20+ licensed, bonded, and insured technicians, all NATE certified. With 873 reviews yielding a 4.9-star average, Stoudenmire serves both residential and commercial customers across Columbia, Lexington, and surrounding Richland County. The company operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays.

What distinguishes Stoudenmire from newer competitors is their decade-long parts-and-labor warranty on new installations, a rarity among Midlands contractors. They service every equipment brand rather than limiting themselves to one manufacturer, and their Energy Savings Membership program offers-filter discounts and priority scheduling for enrolled customers. The company also provides free online system quotes and flexible financing, making major equipment purchases more manageable for homeowners facing unexpected replacements.

Named technicians appear frequently in five-star reviews. Nick earned praise for fitting in a gas log repair a day early and spending extra time teaching the homeowner to operate the system. For a ductless mini-split installation, reviewers specifically credited Michael for thorough proposal walkthroughs and Robbie and Jordan for clean, communicative work that left the job site cleaner than they found it. Martin Cabrera and Hunter Schloemp were called out for professional equipment installation and patience with homeowner questions.
