Commercial HVAC Company in Fort Worth
50+ Years Serving Fort Worth Businesses. Family-Owned, Veteran-Owned.
Fort Worth summers push commercial HVAC systems hard. Triple-digit heat runs equipment for months without relief, and when a system fails in a retail space, office, or industrial facility, every hour of downtime costs money. Modern Air Services has been the commercial HVAC company Fort Worth businesses call for over 50 years, delivering factory-certified installations, same-day repairs, and maintenance that helps keep systems running through the worst of what Texas throws at them.
We’re a family-owned and veteran-owned company, formerly known as Ratterree Heat and Air and rebranded in 2023. That history means our technicians have worked on virtually every building type in Tarrant County, from downtown offices and retail centers to warehouses and light-industrial properties. We offer free estimates on commercial HVAC work. Financing options are available, and we’re proud to serve our Spanish-speaking clients as well. Se habla español.

Commercial HVAC Repairs & the ModernCare Maintenance Plan
When a rooftop unit or central system goes down during a Fort Worth heat wave, the margin between a quick fix and a full shutdown comes down to response time. Our technicians provide same-day commercial HVAC repairs and are available 24/7 for emergencies. We repair all major commercial HVAC brands, so you’re not told we don’t work on your equipment.
Reactive repairs are expensive. The ModernCare Preventative Maintenance Agreement is built to help Fort Worth businesses stay ahead of failures rather than scramble after them. Members receive scheduled bi-annual inspections that we coordinate, so nothing falls through the cracks during a busy season.
ModernCare member benefits include:
- Bi-annual inspections scheduled automatically by our team
- Priority scheduling with unscheduled service within 48 hours whenever possible
- 10% off all repairs
- Discounted diagnostic fees: $69 during regular hours, $119 after hours
- Standard filters included with every maintenance visit
- $100 annual equipment credit toward new equipment for every consecutive year of the agreement, with no maximum limit
For businesses that also need residential or light-commercial coverage, our team handles furnace services, heating repair, heating installation, AC repair, and AC installation.
Commercial HVAC Installation in Fort Worth
A system undersized for its building wastes energy from day one. Oversized equipment short-cycles, accelerating wear and leaving humidity uncontrolled. Before we recommend anything, our team works through the building’s size, layout, occupancy, and usage to determine the right load calculation for the space.
We install high-performance commercial HVAC systems for offices, retail spaces, medical facilities, warehouses, and light-industrial buildings throughout Fort Worth and Tarrant County. As a Lennox Premier Dealer, we have access to Lennox’s full commercial equipment line and the factory-level training to install it correctly. That credential isn’t just about brand affiliation. It means our technicians are held to a higher standard of product knowledge and installation quality.
Energy-Efficient Upgrades for Fort Worth Commercial Buildings
Aging HVAC equipment is often the largest line item on a commercial utility bill. High-efficiency unit upgrades, HVAC retrofits, and smart thermostat integration can each reduce operating costs, and combined they can meaningfully shift what a building spends on climate control. Smart thermostats give facility managers zone-level control and remote monitoring, which is particularly useful for multi-space properties where conditions vary by area. Energy-efficient systems may also qualify your business for utility rebates or incentives, and we can walk you through what’s available.
Indoor Air Quality for Commercial Spaces
Commercial buildings carry air quality challenges residential settings don’t. Higher occupancy, more foot traffic, equipment off-gassing, and stricter ventilation code requirements all raise the stakes. In Fort Worth, outdoor humidity and seasonal allergens add to the load on commercial filtration and humidity control systems.
Poor indoor air quality in a commercial space is linked to reduced employee productivity and increased absenteeism. We install commercial air purification systems and humidity control solutions matched to the specific demands of occupied business spaces. The right setup isn’t a single product. It’s matched to the building’s ventilation design, occupant load, and use type.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Signs That My Commercial Ductwork Needs Inspection or Repair?
Poor airflow and hot spots in specific areas are usually the first indicators. You might also notice dust accumulating at supply vents or a persistent musty odor when the system cycles on. In Fort Worth, where pests and high humidity are common, compromised ductwork can allow contaminants or moisture into the building envelope. We inspect commercial ductwork for leaks and blockages to help confirm the air you’ve conditioned reaches where it’s needed.
How Often Should Commercial Air Filters Be Replaced in a High-Traffic Fort Worth Facility?
Residential filters can go three months between changes, but commercial filters in high-traffic environments like retail stores or medical clinics typically need replacement every 30 to 60 days. Construction proximity, industrial machinery, and heavy foot traffic all saturate filters faster. Clogged filters force the blower motor to work harder, which can lead to system freeze-up or motor burnout over time.
What Does the ModernCare Preventative Maintenance Agreement Include for Commercial Clients?
ModernCare includes automatic bi-annual inspections, priority scheduling with service within 48 hours whenever possible, 10% off all repair work, discounted diagnostic fees ($69 standard, $119 after hours), standard filters included at each visit, and a $100 annual equipment credit per consecutive year with no maximum limit. It’s designed to help reduce unexpected failures and lower the overall cost of keeping commercial equipment running.
