Daikin Applied announced that it has acquired Carroll Air Systems, a Tampa, Fla.-based company that provides heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems and services for commercial, industrial and institutional facilities. Supporting the Central and West Coast regions of Florida, Carroll Air Systems is a long-standing sales representative for Daikin and other leading HVAC equipment manufacturers.
The acquisition creates a sole source for comprehensive customer care, providing consulting engineers, contractors, and building owners and operators with the systems design support, solutions, services and parts they require for high-performing, sustainable buildings. Customers will have one destination for all HVAC needs from selecting and commissioning equipment to maintaining systems to upgrading or replacing technologies.
“Daikin Applied and Carroll Air Systems have a shared mission to deliver an unrivaled customer experience,” said Jeff Drees, President and CEO of Daikin Applied. “Bringing the Carroll Air team into our organization fits our culture and structure. However, it’s our customers that will ultimately benefit. They will have access to the most proven, experienced professionals in the region — specialists now backed by the innovation, resources and capabilities of a global leader.”
Daikin Applied’s regional service operations will combine with the Carroll Air Systems service team. Phillip Carroll (CEO of Carroll Air Systems) will lead the merged operations, including service, sales and parts, which will now do business as Daikin Applied Central and West Coast Florida.
