    Testo Announces Winner of Race Car Trip Sweepstakes

    May 6, 2015
    As the winner of Testo’s Fall 2014 Race Car Trip Sweepstakes, Mr. Monteiro had the choice of a cash prize or a race car trip weekend and opted for the cash prize.

    Testo, Inc., presented a $10,000 check to Emidio Monteiro, owner of Eurotech Climate Systems LLC, Pawtucket, RI, as the winner of Testo’s Fall 2014 Race Car Trip Sweepstakes. Mr. Monteiro had the choice of a cash prize or a race car trip weekend and opted for the cash prize.

    Monteiro was selected in a random drawing from among more than a thousand people who participated in the sweepstakes. Roger Mavrides, Testo HVACR product manager, was on hand for the presentation of the check. 

    “It was my pleasure to be able to see the delight of Mr. Monteiro when he received the check,” said Mavrides.  “It gives me great joy to know that an active user of Testo instruments, who has over 40 years of experience in the heating, air conditioning, installation, and repair service, will benefit from winning this sweepstakes.”

    Mr. Monteiro came to the United States in the 1980’s from Portugal, where he learned refrigeration. He then got his Master Electrician’s License and set up his own HVACR business. Although not required for entering the sweepstakes, Monteiro prefers and uses Testo products because of their combination of features, ergonomic size, precise measurement, and rugged construction. 

    Delighted to win the contest, Monteiro said, “I bought my first testo 523 refrigeration manifold 15 years ago and it still works.  After all these years of buying Testo instruments, winning the sweepstakes was a bonus for me and will allow me to grow my business further.”
