MISSION CRITICAL HVAC MANUFACTURER
Corrbet Nichols brings over two decades of dedication, hands-on experience, and leadership to his role as Chief Operating Officer at Safe Air Technology. For the past 21 years, Corrbet has been an integral part of the company’s growth and success, developing from an entry-level team member into a senior executive through hard work, curiosity, and a deep commitment to excellence.
From a young age, Corrbet was instilled with a strong work ethic and a respect for craftsmanship, values shaped by his close-knit family and his father—a seasoned HVAC professional whose 40-year career spanned both fieldwork and educational roles. Growing up exposed to both the practical and instructional sides of the industry laid a strong foundation for Corrbet’s interest in mechanical systems and engineering.
He began his journey with Safe Air Technology as a part-time general laborer while attending school. What began as a job quickly evolved into a passion, as he immersed himself in every opportunity available—gaining hands-on experience in manufacturing, assembly, wiring, and control panel construction.
His technical aptitude and initiative earned him a transition into the engineering department, where his deep understanding of equipment fabrication proved invaluable. Corrbet's combined knowledge of field operations and system design positioned him to take on leadership of the company’s sales team. In that role, he worked closely with engineering firms and end-users on high-profile projects around the world. He’s had the pleasure of traveling globally to meet and collaborate with customers, ensuring that Safe Air Technology’s solutions exceed expectations in both quality and reliability.
With experience spanning all departments—manufacturing, engineering, and sales—Corrbet was promoted to Vice President of Operations and eventually to Chief Operating Officer. In his current role, he works directly alongside the company’s owner to lead the organization with a focus on innovation, quality, and strategic growth. Corrbet remains committed to fostering a culture of collaboration and integrity, driving Safe Air Technology forward as a global leader in Custom Built Mission Critical and Explosion Proof HVAC equipment.
Outside of work, Corrbet credits his ability to focus on leading the company to the unwavering support of his wife, Brandy, who keeps things running smoothly at home. Their family includes an industrial HVAC technician son, a daughter currently in college, and a middle school son with aspirations of becoming a meteorologist. Their family live in a rural suburb of Baton Rouge—and when not at home or in the office, you’re most likely to find them relaxing together on the beaches of Florida.
