    Pameco Corporation and Tecumseh Cool Products have announced an agreement for Pameco to distribute fractional compressors and condensing units to the OEM and aftermarket refrigeration business. The initial roll out covers the following markets: Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, California and Arizona. Pameco will offer Tecumseh equipment and parts in over 140 branches in select markets across the country. “This arrangement is a perfect fit for Pameco’s existing customer base and it gives both our companies the opportunity to attract more customers to a broader array of Pameco and Tecumseh product lines,” says Dixon Walker, president and CEO of Pameco. Kevin Nohelty, senior vice president, supply chain for Pameco says, “The addition of the Tecumseh products to Pameco’s existing stock of semi-hermetic compressors and equipment allows Pameco to offer one of the most complete lines to our refrigeration and HVAC contractors.” "We're very excited that Pameco will be carrying our products in these markets. Pameco is a nationally recognized wholesaler and the expansion of the Pameco-Tecumseh relationship will undoubtedly assist both companies in maintaining their leadership positions in the important HVAC/R segments," says Jim Rutz, general manager, Tecumseh Products Co., cool products division. Pameco Corp. is one of the largest national distributors of HVAC systems and equipment and refrigeration products in the U.S., with predecessor corporations dating back to 1931, and has established a leading position in the consolidating distribution segment of the climate control industry. Pameco’s products include a complete range of HVACR equipment, parts and supplies for the light commercial and residential HVAC markets and commercial refrigeration market. The products sold by Pameco are used principally for the repair and replacement of existing HVACR and for new construction.
