CYPRESS, CA—November 1, 2001—
Comfort Systems USA, the nation’s third-largest mechanical contractor, has selected Mitsubishi Electric Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning to be its preferred supplier of ductless air conditioning and heating equipment.

Under an agreement that took effect on October 1, 2001, Comfort Systems will offer only Mitsubishi Electric’s Mr. Slim line of ductless products for commercial and residential installations. Ranked number three on Contractor Magazine’s list of the nation’s 100 largest contractors, Houston, Texas-based Comfort Systems USA has 120 locations throughout the United States.

"We’re delighted to enter into this partnership with Comfort Systems," says Craig Little, Mitsubishi Electric HVAC’s vice president of sales and marketing. "As the most requested name in ductless equipment, Mitsubishi Electric has strong brand identification, and we feel it is important that we align ourselves only with contractors and distributors who share our philosophy of integrity, quality and outstanding customer service. Our agreement with Comfort Systems ensures that residential and commercial air conditioning and heating customers can be confident they will receive a quality product and quality service at a fair price."

Comfort Systems technicians will receive training and support at Mitsubishi Electric’s new HVAC technical training facility in Lawrenceville, GA, where the complete line of Mr. Slim products are installed and available for hands-on instruction.

The agreement solidifies a nationwide presence for Mitsubishi Electric’s Mr. Slim brand. The company pioneered ductless systems in the mid-1980s, and the Mr. Slim line now features the widest selection of models and innovative designs in the ductless industry.

Located in Lawrenceville, GA, the HVAC division of Mitsubishi Electric & Electronics USA, Inc. was established in 1984 to market state-of-the-art Mr. Slim™ split-ductless heating and air conditioning systems in North America. Since then, the division has expanded its market distribution range to include Latin America and the Caribbean. The company also markets and distributes PlasmaPure™ air purifiers.
