HVAC Contractor/Subcontractor

Self-employeed
Chattanooga, Tennessee
11.1985 - 02.2014
  • I began my career in the HVAC Trade in 1985 as a Subcontractor for Precision HVAC in Chattanooga, Tennessee. They're no longer in business. From there I went to work as a Subcontractor for Van Aire Systems located in Rossville, Georgia. They're still in business and can be reached at 706-858-0970.
  • Throughout the years I've been fortunate enough to work with several Mechanical Contractors from your basic family-owned shops to Corporate conglomerates through the United States. This has allowed me to gain hands-on experience with pretty much anything to do with HVAC from changing a filter to setting bus-sized equipment with a helicopter.
  • I contracted Residential new construction for several years with a friend getting permits until I got my Tennessee State license in 2005. The license #54339 is now expired. I stopped contracting in 2009 when the housing market crashed. I moved to Nashville in 2014 and now call it home. I'm married to an outstanding women. We own a house in Cheatham County and have no plan to change that.
