Meet the Team at The A/C Guy of Tampa Bay Inc.
Gregg and Tabetha Bowman
Owners / Gregg - President & Visionary
Gregg and Tabetha are the owners of “The A/C Guy of Tampa Bay”, and high school sweethearts. Gregg started the business in 2009 as a one-man operation after seeing too many A/C companies being run the wrong way. He has been working in the HVAC field since 5 years old going with his dad as a “gofer”.
Soon after starting the business, Tabetha started handling the phone and office work in order for Gregg to focus on service and installation. A few years ago she stepped away in order to take care of the family. Since 2009 the company has grown exponentially, and Gregg now spends his time as the Visionary, giving the company direction and reminding everyone of the vision.
In their free time they enjoy spending time with each other and their 5 children, who they adore. They enjoy adventures in traveling and time by the water.
