The Air Angels Foundation, a charitable organization founded by the North Florida Air Conditioning Contractors Association (NFACCA), recently provided air conditioning and heating to the Joan Moore family in Jacksonville.

Joan Moore has been a customer of Tropic Aire for over 40 years. It was this local Air conditioning Contractor that nominated her for the Air Angels Program. Tropic Aire originally installed the first air conditioning the Moore Family ever owned. Joan’s son shared the memory of the initial years without air conditioning as the team replaced the unit on Friday, June 25, 2021. Joan is an 80 year old widow with minimal social security as her only income. Her husband was an 83 year old retired carpenter who died recently performing handy man work to supplement their income.

Jim Jones with Tropic Aire recognized the hard work the Moore family had put into their home over the years. Having grown to know them personally he knew that the need for air conditioning was vital during these summer months. Air Angels mission is to provide to those who find themselves in these positions. It was with great pleasure that the NFACCA took on the project and received donations. Dan Griffin with Weather Engineers secured the Bryant Unit through a donation from CE Florida. Robbie Sallette with R&R Electric donated their services. Ricky Weeks with The City of Jacksonville Mechanical Department donated the Permit at no cost. The Tropic Aire Team donated their efforts to the install of the system with Team Members Michael Crawford and Dustyn Hardwick.

In these cases, the lack of air conditioning is detrimental to the health & well-being to one or more permanent resident in the household. This may include repairing or replacing an existing air conditioning system or providing air conditioning to a home that does not have it.
