Also AAON chillers using MCS controls.Mitsubishi City Multi systems to their smaller M&P line, including the many stand alone front end controllers to the Bacnet interface integrator. I'm one of the few Mitsubishi DSG members in the area left not working for Trane. Very proficient with Aaon Controls (formerly Wattmaster). It is a very powerful and popular controller and interface in Aaon HVAC equipment, but can be used to modify existing control packages for all makes of HVAC equipment. I'm well versed in installing control packages, starting up Aaon Equipment with a Factory Equipment Trained Endorsement. Most of my day envolves remote troubleshooting using remote computer software. I routinely troubleshoot and support customers and contractors using their Prism2 software and computer as well as using the Handheld tool. I have LG brand VRF systems MVP status as we picked up the LG brand in addition to our existing Mitsubishi VRF line. Niagara N4 PLATFORM and Distech Controls 6001 GFX program certified. As we expand further into those platforms, I look forward to growing in the programming side of the BMS. I've worked in field service work for 34 years on most makes and models on split systems, package systems, chillers, boilers, and various other ventilation systems. I'm a highly trained Union Pipefitter who's been in the service industry for 98% of my career, I look forward to imparting my knowledge to the next generation of technicians. Show less
