When an HVAC motor fails, waiting days for a replacement can mean costly downtime for a commercial or industrial facility.Gainesville Industrial Electric (GIE) helps mechanical contractors, facility managers, and maintenance teams get equipment back in service quickly with local motor inventory, experienced technical support, and convenient pickup and delivery options.
Since 1959, GIE has supplied and serviced electric motors throughout Georgia and the Southeast. From fractional-horsepower fan motors to larger three-phase motors for air handlers, cooling towers, and other HVAC equipment, our Gainesville warehouse stocks a broad range of replacement motor solutions.
Commercial HVAC systems rely on electric motors throughout the facility to operate fans, blowers, pumps, air handlers, cooling towers, and other equipment. When a motor fails, identifying the correct replacement quickly is critical.
GIE stocks a wide selection of HVAC and general-purpose electric motors at our Gainesville facility. Our experienced team can cross-reference existing motor information and help identify a suitable replacement based on horsepower, speed, voltage, frame, enclosure, mounting configuration, and application requirements.
We also stock select variable frequency drives (VFDs) and have access to additional locally stocked VFDs through our suppliers.

HVAC Motors & Drives
Our Gainesville inventory includes motors for a variety of commercial HVAC applications, with additional products readily available through our manufacturer and supplier network.
Our HVAC motor and drive offering includes:
Fan and blower motors. Single-phase and three-phase motors for direct-drive and belt-drive fan and blower applications.
Fractional-horsepower motors. Replacement motors for fans and other common commercial HVAC equipment.
Air-handler motors. Motor options for commercial air-handling and ventilation equipment.
Cooling tower motors. Motors designed for the demanding operating conditions found in commercial and industrial cooling tower applications.
Variable frequency drives (VFDs). Select drives are stocked in Gainesville, with additional locally stocked VFDs available through our suppliers for fan, pump, and other HVAC applications.
Motor controls and electrical components. Motor starters, contactors, overloads, fuses, circuit breakers, disconnects, capacitors, and other electrical components for commercial HVAC motor applications.
Fan and Blower Motors
Reliable airflow depends on the proper operation of fan and blower motors throughout an HVAC system. GIE supplies replacement motors for commercial rooftop equipment, air handlers, exhaust fans, ventilation systems, and other fan and blower applications.
Our inventory includes fractional and integral-horsepower motors in single-phase and three-phase configurations. Our team can help cross-reference an existing motor and identify a replacement based on the motor’s nameplate specifications and application.
Cooling Tower and Air-Handling Motors
Cooling towers and commercial air-handling equipment can place demanding requirements on electric motors, particularly in applications exposed to moisture, heat, and continuous operation.
GIE supplies motors for cooling tower, air-handler, and other commercial HVAC applications, including specialized configurations from leading manufacturers.
Our team can help identify the appropriate motor based on horsepower, RPM, voltage, frame size, enclosure, mounting configuration, and other application requirements.
VFDs for Fan and Pump Control
Variable frequency drives allow the speed of compatible AC motors to be adjusted based on system demand. In HVAC applications, VFDs are commonly used with fans, pumps, cooling towers, and air-handling equipment to improve system control and potentially reduce energy consumption and mechanical wear.
GIE stocks select VFDs at our Gainesville facility and has access to additional locally stocked drives through our suppliers. Our team can help match and size a VFD based on the motor and application requirements.
Local Availability & In-House Motor Repair
When HVAC equipment is down, local access to motors can mean the difference between getting a system running the same day and waiting for a replacement to ship.
GIE maintains one of the Southeast’s largest industrial electric motor inventories at our Gainesville facility, giving contractors and maintenance teams access to a broad range of motor types and sizes. Local pickup and delivery options are available to help customers get replacement equipment quickly.
When replacing a motor isn’t the best option, GIE also operates a full-service electric motor repair facility. Our experienced technicians provide motor inspection, testing, rewinding, and mechanical repair services for commercial and industrial electric motors.
