International. In response to customer requests and in-depth research on how contractors use the database of AHRI-certified products, Carrier Enterprise (CE) developed CE's AHRI HVAC System Builder, an online tool that provides HVAC distributors and contractors with a simple way to build AHRI-certified HVAC systems.
This tool instantly checks current system compatibility, AHRI equipment performance ratings, potential discounts for contractor and customer, and real-time pricing and inventory levels at the contractor's local sales center.
The desktop- and mobile-friendly tool saves the contractor time to estimate work, get customer approval, order equipment, and facilitate delivery or pickup directly from the device. The company ensures that since the AHRI System Builder works seamlessly across all devices, contractors can easily work from the customer's office, truck or location site.
"We are excited to be the first HVAC distributor to provide this unique tool to the contractor community. We believe it will be a game changer for how our customers run their HVAC businesses and ensure higher productivity, increased sales, and greater profitability. We spent years developing this tool and led a successful pilot program with our most active HVAC contractors. The results have been fantastic and we are excited to launch it nationally so that our entire dealer network can reap the benefits of the tool," said Edward Gaffney, CE's president of digital business.
