National Compressor Exchange, Inc. strives to offer better pricing compared to the OEM, give an exact replacement and not a generic model so they can save you time and money. The fact is, they are a true remanufacturer, not a rebuilder or repair shop.

Read below to see what Jason Staiano, President of National Compressor, says about his journey, favorite products, and what's next for National Compressor Exchange.

1.      What inspired you to pursue a career at National Compressor? National Compressor is a family business, which was started by my father in 1978. When I was younger, he would take me to work and eventually as I got older I would work summers there. Even though it seemed like a natural progression, I sort of grew up in the industry, but I was not 100% sure it was the path I wanted. I decided to go to George Washington University and after graduating, my father and I had a serious discussion, where I promised him I would give it a shot. Since then, I never looked back, and could not be happier on the decision I made and being the 2nd generation operating the business.

2.      What has been your personal favorite product/service offered? We offer many great products that help our customers save money and cut down lead times. One of our new offerings is the ability to help customers upgrade their current systems to increase longevity of the compressor while increasing energy efficiency. By utilizing Falkonair’s patent pending technology, we can help reduce energy consumption on AC/R systems anywhere from 30-60% reduction. That’s a huge cost savings and great for helping to reduce carbon emissions.

3.      Describe the experience of watching National Compressor grow.I have been here since 2004, and it is incredible how far we have come. Offering new types of remanufactured compressors, such as screw compressors, to being able to offer new makes of remanufactured compressors, such as Bitzer, Hitachi and FuSheng, on the top of all the other makes we offer -- Carrier, Copeland, Trane, York, etc. Two years ago, we set up a whole new facility, which was a huge challenge, but also very fulfilling. To accomplish that was incredible, but also to see our staff step up was incredibly rewarding.

4.      What are you most excited for regarding National Compressor’s future? There are so many different areas we are working in -- from system upgrades to expansions to offering more remanufactured and new replacement compressors/ parts. The future is very bright for National Compressor. I think we have a phenomenal, loyal team behind us and it is exciting to be able to work with them every day to help accomplish a common goal.
