Ice Air to Build New Manufacturing Facility in South Carolina
Ice Air has been awarded a grant by the Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chain within the Department of Energy to support the manufacturing needed to meet the anticipated growing demand for electric heat pump HVAC equipment. The new plant will be located in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
Ice Air designs efficient and durable packaged through-wall systems, geothermal water source heat pumps for space heating and cooling, and commercial size heat pumps for water heating and cooling. A wide range of markets that rely on this equipment for individual room temperature control include luxury and market-rate rental apartment buildings, affordable housing and hotels and travel lodges. The urgent need for multi-family residences, senior living and healthcare facilities is expected to further increase the booming demand.
Heat pump technology can provide year-round comfortable temperatures in all climates with greater efficiency and cost-savings. It also provides more efficient water heating.
