A Company Built Around The Trade

Environmental Air Systems, Inc. has been serving customers in Texas for more than 43 years. We're locally owned and operated, with no private equity ownership, and our leadership remains actively involved in the business and the HVAC/R industry.

We believe experienced technicians should have the opportunity to use their skills, continue learning, and build a career-not simply run calls all day without support or recognition.

Our work provides variety, including commercial HVAC, refrigeration, chilled water systems, and light commercial equipment. If you enjoy diagnosing problems and solving them correctly, you'll have plenty of opportunities to put your experience to work.

Ready for a Role That Uses Your Full Skillset?
