Companies cut Carrier products from their services
A HVAC company owner is turning his back on one of his biggest suppliers after he said the supplier turned its back on its employees.
“We’re not helping buy a CEO their 5th vacation home, we’re helping feed our family,” said R.D. Poffenbarger as he installed a thermostat.
He owns 911 Heating and Cooling in Anderson and is loyal to his suppliers.
“I’ve used Carrier products in my company the whole time,” he said spanning 16 years in business. But he said that won’t happen anymore, not after what Carrier announced Wednesday.
“They were always promoting that they were made in the U.S. and it just shocked me that they would (relocate to Mexico),” he said.
The out-of-the-country move is part of the reason why Poffenbarger says he’ll no longer use Carrier products. “You notice different workmanship…failures,” he said. “It just gets to be a cheaper product.”
Poffenbarger plans to use only suppliers like Goodman or Ameristar going forward.
Earlier in the day, Poffenbarger said he was at a HVAC supply store. He said while there, other heating and air company owners told him they agreed with his decision. He said the supply store was also contemplating not carrying Carrier products.
