BANGOR, Maine — Hallowell International has announced a new distribution partnership with F.W. Webb Company, a major distributor of HVAC products in the Northeast, to handle the company’s Acadia combined heating and cooling system.

Hallowell said that F.W. Webb has long been a partner in the development of the Acadia, providing components to manufacture the system. Now, the enhanced partnership provides Hallowell with an expanded distribution network with increased training facilities and customer support through the 70 F.W. Webb facilities across New England and Upstate New York.

According to Hallowell, the Acadia is a patented, next-generation heat pump that its engineers created using boosted compression technology, enabling it to run effectively and efficiently in temperatures as cold as -30°F.

“The Acadia system is a welcome complement to our green initiatives,” said John E. Thomas, vice president HVAC & Controls for F.W. Webb Company. “We are deeply committed to technologies that promote energy efficiency and reduce the use of fossil fuels that are at the same time affordable to installers and consumers.”

“We are excited about expanding our relationship with F.W. Webb to make energy efficiency, cost effectiveness, and clean technology more readily available to homeowners and businesses,” said Duane A. Hallowell, president and CEO of Hallowell International.
