UNICO TRAINER BIO'S
Unico's Training Department features two exceptionally talented and experienced instructors. Mr. Ted Brown is the Training Department Manager and lead instructor. Mr. Mike Lindsay is the manager of the Las Vegas training facility in addition to his duties as instructor.
Ted Brown
Ted Brown is the Training Director for Unico, Inc. In this capacity he develops the curriculum for the training department and approves all training material. Additionally, he teaches Certified Product Training (CPT) and all Advanced Certification classes for the Unico System.
Ted has been in contracting, wholesale and manufacturing in the HVAC/R industry for his entire career which spans 28 years. No matter what his position in the industry he has always practiced his passion for education. He was literally raised in the HVAC/R and SDHV industries. His father owned contracting, engineering, accounting and wholesale stores in the mountain states and was the original owner/inventor of the Ice-O-Matic ice machine.
Ted started at Unico in 2003 in the Service Dept. before moving in to the Training Department and finally becoming Manager of that group.

Mike Lindsay
Mike Lindsay is the Western Region Trainer for Unico Inc. Mike manages the Las Vegas training facility and is the instructor for all Certified Training which takes place there. In addition, Mike makes trouble shooting calls, as scheduled by Unico.
Mike's parents owned a heating business so he essentially grew up in the industry. For his parents he measured and roughed in homes, made and installed the duct system, then performed the check test and startup. Since then Mike has had extensive experience in the industry working for Washington University, GE and several large conventional HVAC
companies. His background includes lab testing, commercial sales, technical rep and various training positions.
In early 2005, Mike brought his experience, knowledge and teaching skills to Unico. Since then both the company and hundreds of Dealers have benefited from Mike's insight and knowledge and communications skill.
Mike's experience translates very well in the classroom which prompts lively discussions about numerous topics and applications relating to the Unico System including efficiency, capacity and refrigerant piping concerns with multiple capacity machines.
