Fast, Reliable, and Built to Last: Regal Nissan’s New Compressor Installation

A Fast-Moving Dealership with No Time for Downtime

In the automotive world, every minute counts. From service bays to detailing areas, compressed air power tools, lifts, and cleaning systems that keep dealerships moving. When a compressor goes down, the entire operation can slow to a halt—something Regal Nissan’s General Manager, Holden Scott, simply couldn’t afford.

On a Thursday afternoon, Holden submitted a request for a new air compressor. By Friday morning, the team at Tampa Compressor had provided a detailed quote. Within hours, the deal was done.

“He said yes on the spot to an HTM 15,” said our sales team. “He handed us the deposit check that same day.”

From Quote to Installation—All in Less Than a Week

Speed matters, but so does quality. Once the order was confirmed, our technicians got to work scheduling the installation. By the following Wednesday, the new Hodge HTM 15 horsepower compressor was fully installed and running at Regal Nissan.

That turnaround—less than one week from quote to completion—shows how Tampa Compressor continues to earn a reputation for responsive, dependable service.

“We pride ourselves on delivering fast, professional installs that minimize downtime,” said Austin, the lead technician on the job.

A Familiar Name and Proven Trust

This wasn’t Holden’s first experience with the Hodge brand. Years earlier, he had purchased a Hodge compressor for a different application—and that positive experience made this decision an easy one.

“He told us he’d done all the research the first time around,” said our team. “This time, he said he was buying based on our service and how prompt we are.”

That level of trust speaks volumes. In industries like automotive service, reliability isn’t just about the equipment—it’s about knowing your support team shows up when needed and gets the job done right.

Joining the Preventive Maintenance Membership

Along with his new compressor, Holden enrolled Regal Nissan in our Preventive Maintenance Membership Program—a proactive plan designed to protect the investment and maximize uptime.

With regular inspections, filter changes, and system monitoring, the PM program ensures that the new HTM 15 continues performing like new for years to come. It’s one more way we help customers focus on their business while we handle the air.

The Hodge HTM 15: Power and Efficiency in One Package

The HTM 15 is part of Hodge’s proven line of rotary screw compressors, known for energy efficiency, quiet operation, and long-term reliability. Designed for busy shops like Regal Nissan, it delivers consistent air supply for multiple bays without breaking a sweat.

Key Highlights:

  • 15 horsepower rotary screw design for reliable performance
  • Integrated dryer and filtration for clean, dry air
  • Compact footprint perfect for dealerships and service departments
  • Backed by a Forever Warranty when maintained through our PM program

It’s no wonder Holden said yes on the spot—the HTM 15 checked every box for performance, dependability, and value.

A Moment That Says It All

On installation day, something happened that perfectly captured the partnership spirit we strive for. After completing the install, our technician Austin noticed a few stray shavings and dust near the compressor area and asked one of Regal Nissan’s staff members if they had a broom so he could tidy up.

When she brought the broom, she immediately started sweeping herself. Austin smiled, took the broom back, and said, “We’ve got it.”

That small gesture turned into a memorable moment—and a photo of Austin and the Regal Nissan team smiling and hugging after the install. It perfectly illustrates what our company stands for: respect, teamwork, and pride in doing the job right.
