Dave Hartney has been with T.M. Bier & Associates since May 15, 2000, but his roots in the HVAC world go even further back. Growing up in a family full of HVAC professionals, it was almost inevitable he’d land in the same industry. At his father’s suggestion, Dave pursued building automation—something that required more problem-solving and less physical strain—and never looked back. He started his career running conduit, pulling wire, and hanging panels as a technician’s helper. Over time, his curiosity, drive, and commitment to quality helped him rise through the ranks, eventually becoming Install Team Manager.

As a Sales Engineer at T.M. Bier & Associates, Jeffrey Florek thrives in a role where no two days are ever the same. From managing large retrofit bids to supporting key accounts like Rockefeller Center and Estée Lauder, Jeff balances technical expertise with the dynamic demands of the sales world. “A typical day doesn’t really exist in this job,” he admits. Between developing proposals, meeting with customers, handling change orders, and fielding countless emails, Jeff has learned to navigate a fast-paced environment where adaptability is key.
