Giving Back

Proudly Serving The Upstate

Why Giving Back Matters

At Home Service Nerds, we believe that being a good neighbor goes far beyond fixing furnaces and tuning up AC units. Comfort isn’t just about temperature—it’s about knowing you live in a community where people look out for one another. As a family-owned and veteran-operated company, service is in our DNA. It’s not enough to simply do our jobs well; we feel a responsibility to give back, invest in our hometown, and support those who need a helping hand.

To us, success isn’t measured only in systems installed or repairs completed. It’s measured in trust built, relationships strengthened, and lives made a little easier because we cared enough to step up.

Our Commitment to Community

Our approach to giving back is rooted in the same values that guide our everyday work:
  • Integrity First – Do what’s right, even when no one’s watching.
  • Service with Heart – Treat every neighbor like family.
  • Respect Always – Honor the trust people place in us.
  • Community Connection – Invest time, talent, and resources where we live and work.
  • Curiosity & Growth – Look for new ways to make a meaningful impact.

These values remind us that our role as a local business goes beyond transactions. When we roll up our sleeves for a service project, sponsor a local event, or provide comfort to a family in need, it’s about being part of something bigger than ourselves.

Key Initiatives We Support

We’re still in the early stages of shaping our philanthropy programs, but we’re already taking steps to turn our passion for community into action. Here are a few of the initiatives we’re proud to highlight:

Helping Families in Need

Home is where comfort begins. Yet, for many families, replacing an HVAC system or water heater can feel out of reach. That’s why we’re developing a program to provide a free HVAC system or water heater each year to a family facing financial hardship. Comfort shouldn’t be a luxury—it should be a basic part of living in a safe and healthy home.

Local Sponsorships & Events

We’re committed to supporting the schools, organizations, and events that bring our community together. From youth sports sponsorships to neighborhood fundraisers, we love showing up in meaningful ways. It’s about cheering on the next generation, celebrating community pride, and making sure no one feels left out.

Veteran Support

As a veteran-owned business, we know firsthand the sacrifices made by those who serve. That’s why we actively look for ways to support veterans and their families—whether it’s through discounted services, volunteering with local veteran groups, or simply extending a hand of gratitude. Service to our country is something we will always honor.

Environmental Responsibility

Being good stewards of our environment is part of being good neighbors. We promote energy-efficient products and practices that help families save money while reducing their environmental footprint. When possible, we partner with local recycling programs to responsibly dispose of old equipment, ensuring that our community stays cleaner and greener.

Looking Ahead

The truth is, we’re just getting started. We see endless opportunities to use our skills and resources to do good, and we’re excited to expand our efforts in the years to come. Some of our future goals include:

  • Growing our Family in Need HVAC Giveaway into an annual tradition.
  • Launching volunteer service days where our team can dedicate time to local nonprofit projects.
  • Partnering with schools and trade programs to inspire the next generation of technicians and provide mentorship opportunities.
  • Expanding our eco-friendly initiatives to include community education on energy savings and sustainability.

Our promise is simple: as we grow, so will our commitment to giving back.

How You Can Get Involved

We know we’re stronger when we work together. If you’d like to join us in making a difference, here are a few ways you can get involved:

  • Nominate a Family – Know someone who could benefit from our HVAC or water heater giveaway? We’d love to hear their story.
  • Partner with Us – Local organizations and nonprofits are welcome to reach out. We’re always open to new ideas for collaboration.
  • Spread the Word – Share our initiatives with friends and neighbors so we can reach more families in need.

Giving back is a team effort, and we invite you to be part of the journey. Together, we can keep our community not just comfortable, but connected, supported, and thriving.

Because at the end of the day, comfort means more when it’s shared.
