Camp Pendleton: Camp Pendleton HVAC work splits two ways: on-base housing handled through Lincoln Military Housing's in-house service operation, and off-base rental property maintenance in Oceanside and Fallbrook driven by PCS-cycle tenant turnover. Off-base scope is typically repair-and-turnover work, not new-construction or estate installs.
