Our Story

Kalamazoo Mechanical, Inc. has been locally owned and operated since 1985, and recently completed a transition to second generation ownership, under Carson Cornish. Since it’s founding by Carson’s father Irv Cornish, KMI has been a leader in all facets of commercial HVACR, design, installation, and service—including installations in prominent schools, manufacturing and medical facilities, office complexes, churches, and much more. A spirit of continual improvement means KMI is seasoned in all emerging trends of the HVAC industry, such as environmentally friendly refrigerants, sustainable construction, indoor air quality, and safety. The pride in the business is clear among the great people who’ve helped build KMI, while they remain humbly committed to learning and innovation. KMI is a member of Associated Builders and Contractors, and is bonded and licensed in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Wisconsin.

“I was born and raised in this business. Dad taught me the value of hard work, literally side-by-side on more projects than I can count. Plumb, straight, and level are just the start . . . it’s got to be done right.”
