Thermal Equipment Sales, Inc. has been serving the HVAC equipment needs of Kentucky and Southern Indiana for nearly 50 years.
Created in 1957 as Kentucky Univent, the company changed names to Thermal Equipment Sales, Inc when incorporated in 1962.
Herb Spencer and Bill Bradford owned Thermal Equipment Sales, Inc. for many years. In the early 1980′s Thermal Balance was started and would later be spun off. In the mid 1980′s, Herb and Bill parted ways. Herb retained Thermal Equipment Sales, Inc. and Bill started MBH Equipment in 1985. In 1992, Herb opened the Louisville sales office, hiring Paul Mattingly II as the first Louisville salesman.
