Commercial HVAC for Clarksville, TN plants, offices and campuses
Clarksville is a town that manufactures commercial HVAC equipment, not just one that runs it. Trane has built heating and cooling units here since 1958, and the Corporate Business Park next to it is full of tire, printing and appliance plants. We keep the rooftop units, chillers, cooling towers and controls in Montgomery County's commercial and industrial buildings working, whoever made them.

Where we fit in a Clarksville building
A factory floor, a data closet, a lecture hall and a hospital wing each ask something different of their mechanical equipment. What they share is that nobody notices the HVAC until a compressor locks out. George Blevens has spent more than 40 years on commercial equipment, and his rule for a Clarksville service call is the same as anywhere: service first, not replacement first. We find the failed part, show it to you, and price the commercial HVAC repair in Clarksville before anyone says the words "new unit."
- Rooftop unit repair
Warehouse and plant roofs in Montgomery County carry long rows of package units, 2 to 120 tons, gas heat or heat pump. We repair the compressor, fan motor or economizer that failed and flag the neighbors that are next.
- Controls and control cabinets
Older plant equipment tends to outlive its original controller. We read alarm histories, replace boards and contactors, and rewire cabinets so the unit and its controls agree again.
- Server and telecom room cooling
The county now has a Google data center, but the racks most Clarksville businesses rely on sit in a single room of an office or plant. Those rooms cannot run warm, and they are squarely our kind of work.
- Cooling towers on Cumberland River water
Towers here evaporate moderately hard river water all summer. We keep fans, gearboxes, fill and basins in shape so scale does not end up on the chiller's condenser tubes.
Clarksville facts that end up on a mechanical drawing
Heat, water and the kind of buildings the town is made of, each linked to where the number came from.
43 days a year at 90°F
The NOAA station at Outlaw Field averages 1,509.7 cooling degree days and 43 days at or above 90°F, with a June–August average high of 87.6°F. Winter matters too: 3,885.5 heating degree days means the gas heat section works as hard as the compressor.

Trane has made commercial HVAC equipment in Clarksville since 1958 and builds about 100 units a day across six product lines. With 1,781 employees it is the county's largest industrial employer. We service Trane equipment, along with every other make; we are not affiliated with the company.
Clarksville Now · MTIDA 2026 profileA business park of heat loads
The Clarksville-Montgomery County Corporate Business Park holds the Hankook tire plant, Jostens' yearbook printing, an Amazon warehouse, a Google data center and LG Electronics. Tire curing, printing presses and appliance lines all dump heat into the building that the air side has to carry back out.
ConstructConnectA $3.2 billion plant announced
LG Chem's cathode plant on 420 acres at the Allensworth site is the largest announced foreign direct investment in Tennessee history, planned for 860 jobs. New plants start life under an installer's warranty. When that warranty ends, the equipment still needs a service contractor, and that handoff is where we like to come in.
Tennessee Dept. of Economic and Community DevelopmentRiver water, moderately hard
Clarksville draws from the Cumberland River, and its 2025 water averaged 97 ppm total hardness (5.67 grains per gallon), ranging from 78 to 132. Cooling towers concentrate that hardness as they evaporate, so blowdown and treatment decide whether condenser tubes stay clean.
City of Clarksville water quality report · MTIDAA university and a hospital
Austin Peay State University employs 1,067 people and Tennova Healthcare employs 1,250 with 270 rooms. Classrooms empty out in summer while patient rooms never do, so maintenance windows look completely different on each campus.
Clarksville-Montgomery County EDC, top employersAcross Montgomery County
Our Clarksville coverage takes in the Corporate Business Park and the plant sites around it, the Allensworth site, downtown offices and county buildings, the Austin Peay campus, medical offices around Tennova, and the retail strips serving a city of 166,722 at the 2020 Census (Wikipedia). Fort Campbell's Tennessee footprint, $10.1 billion in economic output and 58,411 jobs by the state's FY2016 count (TNECD), is a big part of the economy those buildings serve.
Yes. Trane rooftop units, chillers and air handlers are on our list, the same as Carrier, York, Lennox and brands that no longer exist. We have no tie to the manufacturer; we simply know the equipment and where to find parts for it.
Yes. We plan the job with your maintenance lead first: which line can lose cooling and when, how long the compressor change will take, and what keeps process water cold in the meantime. Then the work happens in that window.
Chemistry only works on a tower that is mechanically sound. We keep the fan, gearbox, fill, basin and bleed valve working so the treatment program has a fair chance, and we clean condenser tubes when scale gets past it anyway.
