Recently, Midea Air Conditioning's first HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) showroom in North America officially opened in New York. The opening event was attended by Chris Corcoran, Superintendent of the New York State Energy Development Authority and Assistant to the Governor of New York, U.S. Congressman Grace Meng, Con Edison, one of the largest energy agencies in the United States, New York's Long Island Power Authority, and other industry leaders. In addition, the New York Times, the American TV program Living in US, the industry media ACHR News and many other mainstream media also attended the scene for interviews and exchanges.
The newly opened HVAC exhibition hall focuses on the "Total Heating Solution" of all scenes, all climates, and all building types, and the star technologies and products on display include ultra-low temperature heat pumps in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy, innovative window heat pumps designated by the New York State government, and EVOX ultra-energy-efficient central air duct systems. In addition, the exhibition hall is also a one-stop service center integrating distribution, after-sales and training, which is another important measure for the localization of Midea's overseas professional channels and the improvement of local service capabilities.
Chris Corcoran, Director of the New York State Energy Development Authority (NYSERDA) and Assistant to the Governor of New York State, said at the opening, "This is a big step forward in New York State's transition to low-carbon heat pumps. We look forward to working with Midea, the local community and installers to drive the heat pump transition." ”
U.S. Congressman Grace Meng said, "We are delighted to be invited to the opening of our new showroom in the United States, and we will continue to work with the Governor Hochul team to ensure that the nation's infrastructure resources reach all households and small businesses in New York State and help us fight climate change together." ”
Kyle Gargaro, editor-in-chief of ACHR News, a specialized HVAC media, believes that Midea has been deeply involved in the New York market and continues to launch energy-efficient heat pump products. The opening of the HVAC showroom provides a unique opportunity for HVAC professionals and consumers to experience first-hand the latest clean heating technologies.
Huang Changfei, Regional Director of North America of Midea Air Conditioning Overseas Marketing Company, said in his opening speech, "Uniting industry forces, including multi-party cooperation and strengthening industry education, is the key to promoting the transformation of heating methods in the whole society. Midea is not only a heat pump manufacturer, but also a pioneer in heat pump education. We will actively promote cooperation between government agencies, industry associations, air conditioning installation engineers and the media to accelerate heat pump replacement across the United States. This year, Midea plans to continue to build more product education and service centers in the United States, and work with the Long Island Power Authority in New York to launch heat pump installation training and heat pump application pilot projects.
According to the latest heat pump market research results of Midea, the lack of awareness of heat pumps among HVAC installers and end consumers is the core reason that hinders them from switching from traditional fossil fuel heating solutions to heat pumps. To this end, Midea's HVAC flagship exhibition hall also has a variety of functions such as professional training for installers, professional examinations, and a practice base for HVAC professional school students. With the successful opening of the HVAC showroom, Midea will further promote the expansion of local professional channels and optimize localized services, and launch more different types of heat pump education and promotion projects, such as HVAC continuing education courses, heat pump technical consultation, community public welfare projects, etc.
