Meet the Team

Bernie Quintero joined the Corpus Christi team as General Manager after Mark Wendland's 37-year career and retirement. Bernie's HVAC career started in Houston, TX as a Sales Manager, and through his hard work and leadership, he moved on to lead One Hour Air Conditioning & Heating of Corpus Christi.

Bernie is a Navy veteran and has a passion for helping his neighbors, community, and fellow veterans. He knows that without the support of his community, he wouldn't be where he is today. Because of that, he's instilled a motto of "doing whatever it takes to build client trust, and once a client is happy, he is happy!". Bernie looks forward to working and speaking with his new community, and his door is always open.

In his spare time, Bernie is a baseball fanatic and refers to the Houston Astros season as his reality show. He looks forward to attending the Corpus Christi Hooks game and settling in with all the outdoor activities Corpus offer, especially fishing!
