Case Study: Newport Harbor Corporation restores HVAC performance and minimizes disruption with Trane Commercial R’newal Service

Newport Harbor Corporation - Customer Case Study

Newport Harbor Corporation, operator of Hemenway’s Seafood Grill & Oyster Bar in Providence, faced a major HVAC challenge when its original Trane self-contained unit became more than 20 years old, unreliable, and difficult to replace because it sat in the center of the building. The company needed a solution that would avoid costly demolition and prevent disruption to guests and scheduled dining service.

Trane Commercial recommended its Commercial Self-Contained R’newal™ Service Program, restoring the aging unit in place by replacing worn components and rebuilding performance and reliability without tearing apart the restaurant. Trane completed the work in three days with minimal disruption, helped Hemenway’s avoid building demolition, and kept the restaurant open for a previously scheduled party of 150 guests, reducing lost revenue and guest disappointment.
