Member Profile – Sid Ellis

Cody — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 14:51:54 +0000

Sid Ellis was born in Brownwood, Texas and lived there for a few years until his family moved to Cleburne. He graduated from Cleburne High School. From the age of 14, he worked with his dad at the family owned business of Ellis Air Conditioning until he turned 18. With his job experience in mechanical and electrical field at an early age he then went to work for Chaparral Steel as a millwright apprentice. After working in the steel industry, he soon learned that air conditioning was a better path to success. He was hired by Harold James from 1988 to 1998 and attended the Local Union Apprenticeship Program. In 1992, he was named Apprentice of the Year for the State of Texas. In 1996, he joined ASHRAE and discovered the world of networking. In 1998, he started the Fort Worth office of Enviromatic Systems and the company grew significantly in just a few years. He had found his niche. Within a short period of time the Fort Worth and Dallas offices merged and moved to a new facility in Grand Prairie.

He traveled through the chairs on the Fort Worth Chapter of ASHRAE and took the challenge as President from 2006-2007. Then he served on the Board of Governors the year after and again this year. He is always more than willing to help anyone in the chapter and has served as a great leader, business guru, mentor, and all-around great friend in this industry. He feels the highlight of his ASHRAE past was the year he worked on the Research Committee. As Research Committee chairman he was able to achieve over $34K for the year. He has one recommendation to the young members getting involved in ASHRAE today. Get involved by meeting and learning from other chapter members. Absorb the knowledge of chapter and the industry as a whole for 10 years and then make the commitment to serve as an officer for the chapter. You will gain so much in a short period of time. His only suggestion for improvement of the chapter would be getting some of the older members back involved at some of the social events. He credits his success to a lot of old guys in ASHRAE that believed in him.
