Demonstrated performance. Tecumseh Products Company LLC is renowned for bringing an extra dimension of product innovation, customer reliance, and product quality to the air conditioning and refrigeration industry. As a result of our innovative spirit and product performance, people rely on our products every day. We literally touch the lives of millions.
Early beginnings. We developed the first “hermetic” compressor for household refrigerators in 1937. As the name Tecumseh became synonymous with commercial refrigeration and central home air conditioning, we expanded our product line to include automotive air conditioning compressors in 1953. Our reputation for innovation was further enhanced in 1959 when we developed the first high-speed hermetically-sealed compressor for commercial applications.
A focused company. Although our product manufacturing focus remains constant, Tecumseh has substantially invested in research and development engineering laboratories in North America, Europe, South America and India. We've also partnered with R&D facilities at universities across the globe. These facilities are not just responsible for engineering product solutions, but our university partners also provide Life Science Research on how our products interface with mankind and the environment.
Tecumseh innovation. Today, we engineer a full-line of hermetically-sealed compressors for commercial refrigeration, residential and specialty air conditioning and, home refrigerators and freezers. But our expertise doesn’t stop there; we also offer a complete line of indoor and outdoor condensing units, unit coolers, heat pumps, complete refrigeration systems and authorized spare parts and accessories.
Global products. Our products can be quickly accessed from manufacturing facilities on four continents when needed on a worldwide basis. We can provide coordination among our global facilities and your plant locations anywhere, so product selection, specifications and delivery of product are assured.
Unwavering commitment. Tecumseh has responded to the challenges of the refrigeration and air conditioning marketplace for over eight (8) decades, leading the way with improved products and service in support of the industry we serve. A company-wide dedication to quality control has already earned Tecumseh the highest quality rating from major refrigeration and air conditioning manufacturers. And, the people we employ are honored to touch so many lives, in so many countries, every day.
