Commercial HVAC Installation in Memphis and the Mid-South
Looking for a commercial HVAC installation partner in the greater Memphis area? Choate's designs, installs, and replaces commercial heating and cooling systems built to keep your building comfortable and your operation running.
We work with businesses throughout Memphis, Collierville, Germantown, Bartlett, and Cordova, and across the state line in Southaven, Olive Branch, and Hernando, MS, plus our Jackson, TN, and Oxford/Batesville, MS service areas. Whether you run a storefront, an office, a warehouse, or a multi-unit facility, we match the system to the building rather than selling you a one-size-fits-all box.
Every recommendation starts with a real assessment of your space, not a phone estimate and a coupon. That is the difference a 65-year local reputation is built on.

The Right Commercial HVAC System for Your Business
A commercial building has very different demands than a home. Occupancy swings through the day, equipment throws off heat, and Memphis humidity works against you from May through September. A system that is sized or configured wrong costs you twice: once on the invoice and again every month on the utility bill.
Our technicians start with a load calculation and a walkthrough of your existing equipment, ductwork, and infrastructure. From there, we recommend a properly sized, high-efficiency system, and we explain the SEER rating and the "why" behind it in plain terms so you can weigh long-term energy savings against upfront cost.
As a Carrier Authorized Dealer, we install trusted, commercial-grade equipment and stand behind it. The goal is simple: a system that holds temperature, controls humidity, and lasts, so your building stays a refuge from the heat instead of an extension of it.
A Documented Install Process, Backed by Memphis' Trusted Experts
When a commercial system is down, nothing matters more than getting it back online, and our technicians are available around the clock to make that happen. But installation done right is what keeps you from getting there in the first place.
Every commercial HVAC installation follows the same transparent process, so there are no surprises:
- Assessment. We evaluate your building, current equipment, and load requirements on site, and we document what we find with photos and video so you can see exactly what we see.
- Plan. We present a right-sized system recommendation with the reasoning behind it.
- Price. We give you clear pricing before any work begins. For complex commercial jobs, that follows the on-site assessment rather than a guess over the phone.
- Repair / Install. Our experienced, professional technicians complete the installation, scheduling around your operations to limit downtime wherever possible.
- Verification. We confirm the system is running to spec and walk you through it before we call the job done.
Meet with a Choate's technician before your current system fails, and we will walk you through choosing and paying for the right replacement on your timeline instead of under emergency pressure.
Why Choose Choate's for Commercial HVAC?
For a business, an HVAC failure is not just discomfort. It is lost productivity, unhappy customers, and, in some cases, spoiled inventory or a closed door. Choate's helps you avoid that by installing dependable systems and standing behind them with documented, professional service. Here is what sets us apart:
- Serving Mid-South businesses since 1958—a third-generation, locally owned and operated company.
- Licensed and insured in TN and MS—License #51398 and E51398.
- A+ BBB rating and Commercial Appeal Choice Awards winner—recognized by the community we serve.
- Real Inspections—we show you photo and video documentation of every diagnosis, so you approve the work with confidence.
- 24/7 emergency commercial service—because equipment does not fail on a schedule.
- Right-sized systems—load calculations, not guesswork.
- Clear pricing before work starts—and a free second opinion on replacements.
- Superior technicians—experienced, professional, and focused on your uptime.
Which Commercial HVAC System Is Best for Your Business?
Choosing the right size is one of the most important decisions in the whole project. A system that is too large short-cycles and leaves your building humid and sticky, a real problem during a Tennessee summer. A system that is too small runs constantly, wears out early, and drives your energy bills up.
Our technicians take the guesswork out of it. We measure your load, factor in your building's layout and use, and fit a system that holds a steady, comfortable temperature efficiently. We carry a wide range of current commercial HVAC technology and will help you find the right match for your space and budget. From a full commercial air conditioning installation to a single rooftop unit installation, we size and place the equipment for how your building actually runs.
Factors That Impact the Cost of Commercial HVAC Installation
Pricing on a new commercial system varies from building to building. The main factors are:
- Ductwork—whether new ductwork is required and how much.
- Existing conditions—the state of your current system, infrastructure, and ducts.
- Equipment brand—the manufacturer and product line you choose.
- Size and scope—the square footage and scale of the project.
- Installation complexity—access, rooftop placement, and code requirements.
- Energy efficiency—the SEER rating and efficiency tier of the system.
We will lay all of this out for you after the on-site assessment so you get honest, clear pricing before any work starts. We do not promise the lowest price. We compete on value, transparency, and a system that pays you back in reliability and lower energy costs.
Commercial HVAC Installation FAQs
How much does commercial HVAC installation cost in Memphis?
It depends on your building's size, the equipment you choose, ductwork, and installation complexity. Because those variables are real, we do not quote complex commercial jobs over the phone. We assess your space on site, then give you clear, itemized pricing before any work begins.
How do I know what size commercial HVAC system I need?
We do not guess. Our technicians run a load calculation based on your building's square footage, layout, occupancy, and use, then recommend a system sized to hold a steady temperature efficiently. Correct sizing protects both your comfort and your energy bills.
Can you minimize downtime during installation?
Yes. We schedule commercial installations around your operating hours wherever possible and plan the changeover to keep disruption to a minimum. Protecting your operation from costly downtime is part of how we plan every commercial job.
Do you offer emergency or after-hours commercial HVAC service?
Yes. Choate's provides 24/7 emergency service for commercial customers across the Memphis metro and North Mississippi. If your system goes down, call us at (901) 755-4797 any time.
Do you service the system after installation?
We do. Preventative maintenance keeps commercial equipment efficient and heads off failures before they close your doors. You have two ways to cover it: our FAM Plan membership, which includes a FAM Plan for Businesses, or a custom maintenance agreement we tailor to your facility's specific equipment and uptime needs. We will help you choose the right fit for your building.
Are you licensed and insured for commercial work in Tennessee and Mississippi?
Yes. Choate's is fully licensed and insured in both TN and MS under License #51398 and E51398, so your commercial project is handled to code by qualified professionals.
