PALM BEACH GARDENS — Carrier Global Corporation is expanding upon its longstanding collaboration with Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI) through a new initiative focused on building energy-efficient, resilient housing. With nearly 400 natural disasters recorded through the Emergency Events Database¹ last year, Carrier’s efforts with HFHI, part of the Habitat Strong program, focus on building fortified homes that can better withstand natural events, while remaining affordable for Habitat homeowners. 

Carrier will provide grants to enhance sustainable construction practices and enable in-person training on resilience strategies for builders. These initiatives will help create homes that conserve energy and natural resources, mitigate against natural events, provide healthier indoor air with more ventilation, air filtration and humidity controls, and reduce long-term utility and repair/replacement costs for Habitat homeowners. Carrier also intends to donate energy-efficient HVAC systems and Carrier Smart Thermostats to many sites where Habitat volunteer events are taking place.
