CLIENT PROFILE G eoff Groff has always had an entrepreneurial spirit. So in 2016, he merged his trade skills with his business acumen to launch Pacific Air Mechanical. Servicing North Vancouver Island, Pacific Air Mechanical specializes in commercial HVAC and refrigeration systems. From the supply and installation of new units to the maintenance and service of existing units, Geoff and his team take pride in helping local clients. Starting a new company was a risk Geoff was excited to take. He saw an opportunity to specialize in commercial HVAC and has quickly grown his company. Now with a team of four core employees, Pacific Air Mechanical is one of the North Island’s most respected providers of HVAC service. “Service in hours, not in days” said Geoff with a laugh when asked what makes him different from the competition. His self-professed love of cheesy lingo aside, he knows it is his responsiveness to clients and his team of Red Seal Mechanics—combined with his knowledge of the area and positive relationships with local trades—that really makes his business stand out. Pacific Air Mechanical invests in technology to make business and maintenance planning quicker and easier for businesses and municipalities. For example, a current commercial client has an extensive network of buildings spread over a large geographic region. Through the specialized technology deployed by Pacific Air Mechanical, this client not only receives regular online billing and service reports but they can also access the portal themselves to track service history, equipment details, and scheduled maintenance plans. Access to this level of instant data has been invaluable to the client—and saved them thousands of dollars in unnecessary service calls.

As a business owner and a service provider, Geoff keenly understands the importance of building strong relationships. When he was looking for insurance coverage, he was referred to Waypoint Insurance and met commercial insurance broker Brian McQuarrie. “My experience with Waypoint Insurance has exceeded my expectations,” says Geoff. “Now I am often disappointed with service levels in other industries. I compare everyone to Brian.” Brian works closely with Geoff on the commercial insurance needs for Pacific Air Mechanical. Supported by his Courtenay branch team, Brian also helps Geoff on all of his personal insurance needs. “Brian even sends me an email to remind me that my car insurance is coming due,” Geoff notes. “With all I have to think about in a day, sometimes it’s things like an insurance renewal that get missed. Brian knows I have a lot going on, and he makes sure my insurance is something I don’t need to worry about!” 27
