Michael Murphy

A life-long entrepreneur and successful business owner with patented product, Michael formed Southern Climate Solutions in 2004 after experiencing the negative effects the climate of the Southeast region had on homes and health.

With a focus on indoor air quality and good health, Michael perfected sustainable, custom dehumidification solutions to control the indoor environment for both residential and commercial spaces, preventing mold and other hazards.

Michael attended Troy University and entered the world of business ownership in 1984, starting a small boat manufacturing company he grew from 3 employees to 180 over four years when he sold the company. Over the next 20-years, Michael started several successful businesses and patented a product still used today in the marine craft and yacht segment. His focus on indoor air quality led to the start of Southern Climate Solutions, which Michael has successfully run since 2004.

“My business experience, both successes and failures, have been the foundation for building Southern Climate Solutions into a very successful company. Having the ability to pivot quickly in response to demands, whether a crisis like COVID-19 or customer demands, continues to fuel my passion to create products that solve issues.”

“Transitioning from the corporate world to business owner and entrepreneur was a whirlwind. My experiences in media allowed me to understand the entire operation, not just the accounting department. That experience -understanding all aspects of business – from the mailroom to the board room, was invaluable. I’ve always had a flair for the creative, combined with the ability to react quickly, I embraced the world of business owner and entrepreneur quickly.”
