HVAC Service & Repair

Fast, honest repairs from a team that actually shows up.

If your system is acting weird, making noises, or straight-up quitting, we'll diagnose it clearly and fix it right. We service all makes and models, and we'll never pressure you into repairs you don't need. No runaround. No "mystery charges".

Seasonal Maintenance

Two tune-ups a year to keep your system running smoothly and to keep you stress-free.

Our seasonal maintenance keeps your system efficient, reliable, and less likely to break down when you need it most. Catch problems early, improve performance, and help extend the life of your equipment. (It's kind of like pilates for your HVAC.) Ask us about the Cumberland Cooling Comfort Club!

Ductwork

Better airflow and comfort where you want it (which is to say: not in your attic or crawlspace).

Leaky or damaged ductwork can cause uneven temps, higher bills, and rooms that never feel quite right. We can diagnose and repair, or design and replace ductwork so your system can actually do its job. Comfort starts with airflow.

Air Quality

Cleaner air, healthier home because breathing shouldn't be a struggle.

Dust, allergies, humidity, and weird smells can all be signs your indoor air needs help. We offer air filtration, humidifiers, and solutions that make your home feel fresher and more comfortable. Your lungs (and nose) will thank you.

Who We Are

At Cumberland Cooling, we're proud native Nashvillians who take even greater pride in serving our East Nashville neighbors. We live here, our kids go to school here, and we are proud to serve our community. We've intentionally grown at a measured pace, staying true to the level of customer service and trust our customers expect. As we continue to grow, that commitment remains unchanged. Every member of our team is hired with that same mission in mind, to serve our neighbors with honesty, care, and respect.

Blake Taylor

Owner and HVAC Technician

Nashville native Blake Taylor has worked in the service business his entire life. It's in the genes: his dad was a contractor, and his grandfather was in the HVAC biz. He's been fixing things since he could pick up a hammer.

He's lived in East Nashville since 2009, and his two children attend school in the neighborhood. Blake fantasizes about what he'd do in his free time (although he enjoys counting ceiling tiles at the dentist's office). In the meantime, he focuses on expanding his knowledge of all things HVAC-related and staying up to date on the latest industry innovations.

He is driven to treat every customer with the same respect, consideration, and honesty he would expect. He and his wife, Amber, enjoy spending time with their kids and enjoying all East Nashville offers.

John Mark Jackson

Owner and HVAC Technician

Believe it or not, it's been over 25 years since John Mark started working in the HVAC industry. He takes pride in his work and derives great satisfaction from a job well done.

He enjoys the heating and cooling service industry because it gives him the opportunity to meet new people and care for them in a rare, genuine way. He also appreciates the opportunity to be an active part of his community.

He lives in Madison with his wife, Ruth, who teaches at Dan Mills Elementary in Inglewood. When he's not on the Cumberland clock, he enjoys hanging out with his wife, his son Eli, and their rescue pup, Rooster. Together, they enjoy hiking, camping, and boating, and when it's deer hunting season, you might find him bagging a buck on his farm in Butler County, KY.

Meet The Team

"Blake and his team are professional, personable, and extremely knowledgeable. Unlike many contractors, the service professionals at Cumberland Cooling have extensive experience and technical knowledge which results in top quality service done right, the FIRST time. In the event they do need to come back with a part, it's because they triaged and diagnosed correctly. Don't trust just anyone with your HVAC needs. It's too big of an investment not to call Cumberland Cooling."

Joe S.

"Cumberland Cooling has been wonderful every time they've come to my home. I'm a tenant and my landlord uses them, and I'm always impressed by how kind and professional the staff and technicians are. They have been very accommodating with my work schedule, and they had no problem greeting my dog and cat when they came in. All of the maintenance and repair work has been done thoroughly and with real care."

Maureen L.

"10 out of 10. No BS local business. My technician was so good. I asked if I could request him next time and he said actually I don't do service calls much. I'm one of the owners and we give our veterans off on Veterans Day and I'm filling in. How cool is that!?! Highly recommend this business for HVAC."

"Cumberland Cooling is the best HVAC company in Nashville. I hired them to install a new Mitsubishi heat pump when my old system failed, and they've been making planned maintenance visits ever since.

I'll never move out of East Nashville because then I'd have to find another HVAC contractor!"
