My project portfolio

Located at 4900 Bridge St, Tampa, FL 33611, this huge luxury residential building in the southern area of Tampa was my baptism by fire. Under the direct guidance of an experienced mechanic, I worked helping on the installation of water pumps, chillers, AHUs (Air Handling Units), exhaust, supply, and return ventilation systems with ductwork, pipework, and duct board (in the adjacent Townhouses subproject), as well as creating different fittings and offsets. If I wasn't cut out for this, it would be known here.

Located at 209 S Adams St, Tallahassee, FL 32301, this project involved a renovation and expansion from the main hotel, which included creating new rooms and common areas. Having already gained experience at Marina Pointe, I was given more freedom to carry out the installation work, primarily involving pipework, and ductwork just for installation of FCUs (Fan Coil Units) in the rooms. This renovation project suffered from poor communication among high-level stakeholders, resulting in several instances where we had to redirect duct lines to resolve conflicts. This included demolishing finished lines and creating openings in the old brick walls for the new lines.

Located at 13515 Sheldon Rd. Tampa, FL 33626, this project involved the completion of the HVAC system for Dunphy's Properties' new corporate office, with our team being responsible for the second floor. Here the entire ventilation system was constructed using Duct Board, with some pipes allocated for the exhaust lines. Working extensively with Duct Board allowed me to acquire the skills to manufacture all types of fittings with quality and efficiency.

Located at 1110 Assembly Drive, Tampa, FL 33607, this project required the installation of the HVAC system from scratch on the 6th floor of the corporate office building, KFORCE. Once promoted to HVAC mechanic, I took a proactive role in the entire project lifecycle, which included duct layout, hanger assembly, main duct line assembly, installation of VAVs (Variable Air Volume) and suspended FCUs (Fan Coil Units), connections for fire dampers with access doors and air transfers, and finally branching with flex duct and pipework to linear diffusers and exhaust lines respectively.

Located at 6100 154th Ave. N., Clearwater, FL 33760, this short remodeling project requires work with a demolition phase, followed by the installation of a more capable air exhaust system using large pipes measuring 20, 24, and 28 inches in diameter in different areas. The installation of the pipework in the conditioning area was followed by a job of installing several Make-up Air Units (MAUs) and utility exhaust fans on the roof.

Located at 19985 Market Way, North Port, Florida, in this massive 192-apartment, 235,000 square-foot hotel, I carried out the project's closing stage by completing specific, final tasks. These tasks included making a pipework connection in a specific mechanical room, redesigning a four-piece duct board to replace a previously poorly done job, and connecting flexes and FCUs (Fan Coil Units) in specific rooms. It involved two weeks of inspections throughout the hotel.

This industrial warehouse located at 2450 W Copans Rd, West Palm Beach, required the installation of 2 high-performance evaporators and 4 freezers to cover a large area. For these large units measuring 100x27 inches, a layout and roof preparation work had to be done first. Afterwards, refrigerant lines were installed (following a layout stage as well) to conclude with the installation of the condensers on the rooftop.

This office complex located at 900 Sarasota Center Blvd, Sarasota, FL 34240 required our team to carry out the installation of copper lines in the final phase. There were 2 AHUs (Air Handling Units) of just over 50 BTU each with double coils and a reheat line. The work itself was not difficult, but the working conditions greatly hindered progress: The interior structure was already completed, so there was not enough space to reach the hard ceiling with scissor lifts and install support structures, nor was there enough space to comfortably conduct the welding process within the building.
