About Oklahoma Chiller

We Are More Than Just Chillers

Our Purpose

Founder, John Claybourn, started his career as a mechanical technician in Dallas, but later moved back to Oklahoma to be closer with his dad who was ill.  Once his dad was better, he was contemplating whether to continue his career in Tulsa or move back to Dallas.  That is when John felt called to start his own company that would attempt to change the industry perspective of mechanical contractors by always serving customers with their best interest in mind. 

The Culture

Ever since that beginning in 2005, Oklahoma Chiller has been guided by values like: Trust, Loyalty, Courage, Humility, Excellence and focused on our passion of building relationships, serving people, and transforming lives.

More Than Just Chillers

Today that same philosophy is alive in everything we do from serving people to designing, engineering, installing, and servicing commercial HVAC and process cooling systems.  In addition to mechanical services, Oklahoma Chiller offers building automation services and equipment rental services.

Vision

We offer our services throughout Oklahoma and the surrounding areas out of our headquarters in Tulsa Oklahoma and our office in Oklahoma City. Our vision is to continue to grow and create opportunity for our employees and positively impact thousands of lives.
