We love to solve problems….We love to find creative solutions to indoor air temperatures, indoor air quality and mechanical issues…and we love to eat!

Bill BurfordOur Founding Father, AKA The Chiller Whisperer

Bill received air conditioning training in the United States Air Force from which he was honorably discharged in 1966. He pursued his chosen trade in the civilian sector, working for both “low-temperature” refrigeration service companies and, later, entering the commercial HVAC sector. From 1980 – 1996, Bill was Phoenix District Manager for McQuay Service, a manufacturer of commercial and residential heating and cooling equipment. In 1996 Bill left McQuay to start his own mechanical service company in Phoenix, and CAMS was born. He successfully overcame the challenges of a start-up company by providing excellence and customer focused services and by identifying problems that improved temperatures and lowered maintenance and run cost. Bill also fancies himself as the “BEST” BBQ-er in the Southwest!

Cherri MarresePresident

Starting in the trenches of administration in 1981, and adding a little hands on knowledge of the field has truly helped her understand how to serve our team so that they can focus on caring for our clients. Cherri does not profess to cook, but she does love to supply the perfect beverage to compliment our meals!

Dan GobellConstruction Division Manager

Dan has built a loyal base of general contracting clients by solving difficult mechanical challenges and by ensuring ALL projects are completed on time. By taking care of his install team, he has surrounded himself with crews that have worked together for decades. This unusual team experience creates a fluid working relationship that results in a consistent high quality install. Dan loves to BBQ, tailgate and cook. He regularly challenges Bill for the Head Chef title at CAMS.
