Marine Services

Global Reach and Local Presence

Johnson Controls Marine Services operates through our own or carefully selected business entities located around the world, ensuring a global reach with local partners you know and trust—essential for marine customers who need on-the-spot assistance while their vessels are in service. With an installed base consisting of about 10,000 vessels, our customer base includes more than 20 percent of all larger ocean-going vessels. 

True 24/7 Experienced Technical Support

Our global marine service and parts network supplies customers with full 24-hour, 7-days-a-week technical support for Johnson Controls marine plants and equipment including Sabroe, Stal, YORK, Gram, and Frick compressors. We provide intelligent preventive maintenance to ensure that operational efficiency remains at a maximum throughout the working life of the system. This also increases safety and minimizes downtime. Our marine services staff are experts in their field, supported by experienced HVAC and refrigeration marine engineers, in dealing with all aspects of services such as replacement of HVAC and refrigeration equipment, refrigerant conversions, and energy efficiency upgrades.

Market Leading Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning for Navy Vessels

Johnson Controls is dedicated to the supply of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC/R) systems for use on all types of Navy vessels. All equipment supplied by Navy Systems is designed, manufactured, tested, and installed to meet the very specific demands of customers working in this challenging and unique environment. We apply our extensive experience of shipboard air conditioning and refrigeration systems to ensure that knowledge-based solutions are applied to naval vessels of all kinds, from submarines to aircraft carriers. We can design and/or manufacture equipment to meet the stringent naval requirements of any application.

Whether it is a bespoke design to meet exacting criteria demanded by a submarine, or a commercial off-the-shelf product more suited to a fleet auxiliary vessel, all equipment is manufactured to the highest quality standards. Rest assured that our global support infrastructure ensures that vessels are kept operational wherever they may be deployed. We can design or retrofit systems and install, service, and repair equipment anywhere in the world.

Specialist Refrigeration Solutions

Johnson Controls Marine knows that the most important single factor affecting the quality of fish is the post-catch refrigeration and temperature control processes. Our solutions for the fishery industry build on the market's most powerful compressor series and the highest level of automation. With a selection of powerful and efficient compressors, frequency converter drives that optimise operational cost, and heat exchangers designed with welded connection between titanium tubs and tube plates to ensure longevity despite sea water exposure, Johnson Controls provides lifetime performance.

With advanced CO² freezing plants and refrigerated sea water plants available, Johnson Controls offers high performance and efficient costs. Whether you are after a high freezing capacity for limited floor space, want to minimise crew attendance to equipment, use natural environmentally safe refrigerant, or minimise operating costs, our experts can offer you the right solutions.

Specialised HVAC/R Service Capabilities

With a common global range of HVAC/R products, user-friendly PLC-based controls, and a global network of highly-skilled marine service technicians available 24/7, Johnson Controls offers a unique combination of high reliability and deep system knowledge to our marine customers.
