About This Job

General Company Background

Pro-Air, Inc. was established in 1994 as a Maryland Corporation. Since then, we moved our Headquarters to Washington DC. Pro-Air operates principally as a mechanical contractor that performs the installation, operation and maintenance of all HVAC and Plumbing systems. We have recently expanded our services to include process piping including orbital welding. Pro-Air’s construction division has completed a large array of projects, with varying scope and demands. Among these are data facilities, schools, laboratories, hospitals, government facilities, tenant interiors, small base buildings and apartment complexes. Pro-Air’s service division has the ability/knowledge to service and maintain various types of equipment, fixtures and systems. The company is a DC CBE firm and fully licensed to perform Plumbing/HVAC in Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Washington DC.

Currently, the company has an office in Washington, DC and in Elkridge, MD. The office in MD has a full fabrication facility and warehouse that enables us to pre-fabricate and store materials to meet the ever-changing demands of the construction industry. Our facility has a complete on-site bridge crane, which allows us to handle pipe up to 24” in diameter. The facility also has automatic pipe plasma cutters, orbital welders, grooving stations, MIG welders, presses, automated chop saws, band saws, tee-pulling machines and other equipment. This allows us to not only store equipment, pipe and fixtures for upcoming or current projects but gives us the ability to prefab material, which can help to expedite the project’s schedule or assist in meeting the owner’s requirements. With our 65,000 sq./ft warehouse/fab shop, we can store prefabbed materials for last minute delivery to keep the jobsite clear of unused materials.

With the construction industry evolving daily and moving towards Energy Efficiency/Green Build and LEAN Construction Pro-Air, Inc. has taken the necessary steps to stay ahead of the curve. Currently Pro-Air, INC. has employees who are LEED accredited professionals, and we are members of the USGBC.

We currently have 14 in house BIM coordinators assisting with this effort.
