Family Owned and Operated Right Here in Albany, Oregon

Axel grew up in Albany, graduated from South Albany High School in 2019, and went straight into building a career with his hands. He studied Mechatronics and HVAC at Linn-Benton Community College - a program that trains technicians to understand not just how systems run, but why they work the way they do.

Before launching Pacific Breeze, he worked as a Manufacturing Technician at Intel, assembling wafers in one of the most precision-demanding environments in the industry. That background isn't incidental. It's why Axel approaches every HVAC job with the same attention to detail you'd expect from someone who spent time building semiconductor components.

Outside the shop, Axel runs trails, fixes small appliances for fun (yes, really), and plays soccer.

Twenty-five years in the field. That's not a combined number - that's Cirilo, alone. He's worked on commercial and residential HVAC systems long enough to have seen just about everything, and he brings that depth to every job Pacific Breeze takes on.

Cirilo handles the full range: furnaces, mini-splits, central air handlers, rooftop units, chillers, water heaters, gas lines - residential and commercial. He also does custom sheet metal fabrication and ductwork installation. When we say custom, we mean it. Cirilo can fabricate metal housings and components in aluminum, steel, and titanium - a capability most HVAC shops in this region simply don't have. When a job calls for something that doesn't exist off a shelf, Cirilo builds it.

Mike brings roughly 20 years of commercial HVAC experience to the team, with a specialty in the kind of work that keeps businesses running. Water cooling towers, commercial kitchen refrigerators, walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers, commercial refrigeration systems - Mike has seen them all and fixed most of them.

If you run a restaurant or manage a commercial property, Mike is the technician you want on call. He handles everything Cirilo does, with a heavy lean toward the commercial side.
