About Us – Arctic Air Home Services

We Keep Your Home Comfortable, Your Bills Lower, and Your Peace of Mind Higher

For over 15 years, families and businesses across Sarasota have trusted Arctic Home Services when their AC stops working on the hottest day of summer, when a pipe bursts in the middle of the night, or when they just want to breathe easier knowing their home systems are running smoothly.


Scott Whitaker and Don Ellerbee began working together in 2003 and quickly realized they shared the same long-term vision for the HVAC industry. From that shared vision, Arctic Air Services, Inc. was founded in 2008.

From the beginning, the company combined technical expertise with a strong commitment to creating a family-oriented work environment.

Scott Whitaker began his career serving in the Army, earning certification as a Heavy Wheel Mechanic. After completing his service, he transitioned into the automobile repair industry, specializing in vehicle air conditioning systems. That experience naturally led him into residential HVAC.

In 2008, Scott earned his Class B Air Conditioning Contractor license through the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. In 2019, he expanded his credentials by obtaining his Plumbing Contractor license. Scott continues to pursue additional training and licensing to strengthen the company’s expertise in both HVAC and plumbing services.

Don, also a Florida native, was a second-generation HVAC contractor. Prior to Arctic Air Services, Inc., he partnered with his father and brother in their family’s air conditioning business. In 1994, he founded his own air conditioning company and later relocated it in 2003 — where he met Scott. Don was licensed as a Certified Builder Contractor and Electrical Contractor through the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

When Scott and Don founded Arctic Air Services, Inc., they specialized in HVAC installation for residential new construction. It quickly became clear there was a growing need for professional HVAC repair and maintenance services for existing homeowners. Expanding into service allowed the company to grow significantly in the years that followed.

In 2015, Scott and Don founded Arctic Air Plumbing Services, Inc. after recognizing the need for quality plumbing installation in residential construction. In 2020, Arctic Air Home Services, Inc. was established to further support the increasing demand for expert HVAC and plumbing repair and maintenance services for homeowners.

Throughout the company’s growth, Scott and Don never compromised their commitment to building a culture rooted in teamwork and family values. Today, with over 180 employees and growing, Scott continues to oversee daily operations while maintaining an open-door policy for employees. Arctic Air also partners with local businesses and organizations to support charitable initiatives within the community.
