Steven Gillespie has been in the heating, air conditioning and refrigeration field since 1987, starting his career with the U.S.A.F. After separating from the U.S.A.F. in 1992 he dedicated several years of his life to self-employment. Steven resides in the coastal South Carolina area and has been in the HVAC/R field for nearly sixteen years. He has answered thousands of questions from homeowners and serviced thousands of pieces of equipment. He has realized how little most people know about the important items in their home and hopes that by simplifying things it will help avoid the unnecessary and often large amounts of money being spent on repairs or replacement of heating and air conditioning equipment in the home.
