Todd Keller — business owner, HVAC professional, and experienced leader.

Off the clock on the water — life on the Space Coast.

Some careers are planned on paper. Todd Keller's was built in person — one shift, one customer, and one team at a time.

Todd began working at 16 years old as a cashier at Winn-Dixie. Over the next 29 years, he worked his way through the company — serving as a Regional Trainer, a Store Manager, and ultimately an Acquisition Team Lead. Along the way he learned what leadership actually looks like: listening to people, understanding the customer, building strong teams, solving problems, managing resources, holding people accountable, and leading by example.

He carried that foundation into entrepreneurship. Today he owns and operates Florida service businesses — including Savage Heating & Air and Piper Outdoors — applying three decades of operations, sales, training, and team development to the skilled trades. He understands the needs of homeowners and local businesses because he has spent a lifetime serving them.

Today, Todd calls Brevard County, Florida home. His focus is simple: do honest work, build strong businesses, develop people, and invest in the community that invested in him.

Leadership Philosophy

What Experience Has Taught Me

01

People Matter

Strong organizations are built by developing and respecting the people who make them work.

02

Show Up

Leadership starts with being willing to do the work.

03

Solve Problems

Customers and communities need people who focus on solutions rather than excuses.

04

Earn Trust

Trust is built through consistency, honesty, accountability, and follow-through.

05

Keep Learning

Decades of experience do not eliminate the need to keep learning.

Life Beyond the Work

Florida Water, Open Fields & Family

Thirty-five years an outdoorsman. Thirty years navigating Florida's waterways — by bass boat and airboat. Hunter and fisherman, quail and deer season, a hunting guide's patience, the Gators on Saturday and the Eagles on Sunday — this is the life behind the work.
