Mike Nicolai

Triton AirFounded in 2001, Triton Air was born from humble beginnings in the Nicolai’s home. The company has since moved into its current facility, which serves as an office and warehouse. In 2006, as the company grew, it expanded into both neighboring suites. Due to the lockdowns this past March and April, business slowed, and Mike was placed in the regrettable position of needing to lay off some of his employees. As he shared the unfortunate news with his staff, he said, “I look forward to the day when I can see you walk through these doors again, look you in the eye, shake your hand, and welcome you back.” Fortunately, it didn’t take long for them to return.

In May, area families focused on home Improvements, almost in unison, and business skyrocketed. “It completely flipped!” Mike recalls. “It was like going from 0 to 100 miles per hour overnight.” Needless to say, Triton rehired its team, and the company’s business soared. “It was such a meaningful time,” he says “and such an emotional time. To share some positivity was truly rewarding.”

Mike says that Triton’s most requested services are regular maintenance on heating and air systems, but when COVID-19 was determined to be airborne, the focus quickly shifted to air filtration. Many families are now upgrading their systems in an effort to prevent virus spread, and to provide added peace of mind. The MERV-16 mechanical filtration system, which Mike likens to an “N95 mask for your home,” utilizes UVC light technology to prevent virus, bacteria, and even mold reproduction. Another popular option is a photocatalytic air filtration system, which emulates the air quality on the beach. “These indoor climate technologies are also effective in combating smoke from nearby wildfires,” Mike says.

Even with thousands of satisfied customers around the county, Triton Air is perhaps best known for its charitable contributions. “Our vision,” Mike says, “is to positively impact people. We ask our team to look out for one another and support one another. Together we go out to help support our community.”

You can support this local, family business by hiring Triton Air to maintain your current HVAC system or to upgrade your existing system. A quick call to San Clemente’s Triton Air is one you can feel good about making.
