Blue Box Air Inc

Blue Box Air, LLC is a private company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, that specializes in HVAC system restoration and maintenance. Founded by CEO James P. Metropoulos and commercialized around 2016, the company has between 50 and 200 employees. Blue Box Air is an operating company focused on improving energy efficiency and indoor air quality in commercial and industrial buildings.

The company's core offering is a patented process for cleaning and decontaminating the heat transfer coils within large-scale HVAC systems. Blue Box Air utilizes an enzyme-infused foam and bio-automation technology to remove biological fouling from deep inside the coils, often while the HVAC system remains in operation. This service is designed to restore airflow and heat transfer efficiency, which can reduce a building's energy consumption and improve air quality by addressing issues like "Sick Building Syndrome." The company also developed a specific disinfection protocol to combat airborne pathogens within ventilation systems.

Blue Box Air is an operating company actively enforcing its intellectual property. Its patent litigation history consists of one case filed as a plaintiff and none as a defendant. This plaintiff-only posture indicates the company is using litigation to assert its own patents rather than defending against suits from others. The case was filed in the Northern District of Texas, the company's home jurisdiction.

The company's single tracked lawsuit is Blue Box Air Inc v. BioCoil Pro, LP et al., filed in April 2026. The defendant, BioCoil Pro, appears to be a direct competitor that also markets a probiotic-based HVAC coil cleaning solution designed to break down organic buildup. This suggests the litigation is a patent infringement dispute between competitors over their core coil-cleaning technologies.
