WaterFurnace to Acquire Company, Expand Line
Chillit Chillers manufactures specialty chillers and geothermal heat pumps for large commercial and industrial applications. According to the company, it has seen increasing sales since its establishment in 2009 and brings with it an expertise in the development of controls, building automation, and remote monitoring software that work together to optimize equipment performance.
The company's press release noted that this acquisition supports WaterFurnace and Chillit’s shared mission to bring energy efficient products and technologies to the commercial market and will provide synergies to both companies.
