INDIANAPOLIS - In recognition of the outstanding efforts undertaken by its dealers nationwide, Bryant Heating & Cooling Systems is launching a new way to identify and reward its top-performing contractors in 2006 through its enhanced Dealer of the Year and Medal of Excellence (MOE) awards, announced during National Indoor Comfort Week, celebrated April 23-29.

Throughout 2006, Bryant dealers will earn points for meeting criteria in three key categories: quality, satisfaction, and performance. Participation in sponsored events and promotions, documented customer satisfaction, and sales growth are among ways Bryant dealers can earn points.

In February 2007, 15 Bryant MOE winners will be awarded an all-expense paid weekend to Beverly Hills for red carpet treatment at Bryant's Hollywood-style awards ceremony.
