About Watsco
Watsco improves indoor living and working environments with air
conditioning and heating solutions that provide comfort regardless of
the outdoor climate. Our solutions also promote healthier indoor spaces
by removing pollutants from the indoor air that can lead to asthma,
allergies and reductions in productivity. Furthermore, since heating and
cooling accounts for approximately half of the energy consumed in a
typical U.S. home, we offer consumers the greatest opportunity to save
money on energy by replacing existing air conditioning and heating
systems with more energy efficient and environmentally friendly
solutions.
There are approximately 89 million central air conditioning and heating
systems installed in the United States that have been in service for
more than 10 years. Older systems often operate below today’s government
mandated energy efficiency and environmental standards. Watsco has an
opportunity to accelerate the replacement of these systems at a scale
greater than our competitors as the movement toward reducing energy
consumption and its environmental impact continues. We operate from 569
locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico, with
additional market coverage on an export basis to Latin America and the
Caribbean. As the industry leader, significant growth potential remains
given that the estimated marketplace in the Americas for HVAC/R products
is approximately $35 billion. Additional information about Watsco may be
