With his father, James, who ran a plumbing company, and sister, Stella, Reuben Trane founded The Trane Co. in La Crosse, Wisconsin, in 1913.

The new Trane office, which will employ up to 10 people, will serve as a local hub for HVAC equipment, service, and turnkey sales.

The latest lawsuit to claim collusion and price-fixing by manufacturers was filed May 11 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan by Husky Heating & Cooling, a contractor in Conway, Arkansas.

With residential HVAC slumping, data centers are driving growth — but new chip designs, local resistance, and even space-based alternatives raise questions about whether that boom will last.

Trane expects commercial HVAC sales to remain strong in 2026, while residential sales are projected to be soft in the first quarter before improving in the second half of the year. 

The commercial division at Trane Technologies raised prices on select products and services, effective September 27.

This upgrade will replace major plant components, including chillers, cooling towers, primary pumps, and the energy-management system, with high-efficiency technology and artificial intelligence-ready automation.

Harnessing Trane’s systems knowledge and expertise, the chiller plant controller converts complex programming into a simplified, efficient solution that can be customized to meet unique needs, a press release from the company said.

The expansion will support the production of thermal management solutions and provide the opportunity to increase the plant’s full-time workforce by about 20% over the next year.

Trane's new cooling solution helps maintain optimal air circulation and temperature levels for servers and other electronic equipment to promote their uptime while reducing power consumption and energy demand, the company said.
