Queens, N.Y. (February 26, 2024) – Midea, one of the leading innovators in the HVAC industry, announced the opening of its first national showroom and distribution center in Queens, New York with a special ribbon-cutting event attended by a representative of New York Governor Hochul’s office, New York Congresswoman Grace Meng, representatives from Con Edison and PSEG and other industry leaders. The innovative space will make heat pumps more accessible for consumers and professionals alike, demonstrating Midea’s commitment to equitably integrating advanced heat pump technology into homes across North America.
Located in Queens at the heart of New York City’s five boroughs and in collaboration with Ai-Midea Air Conditioning, a dedicated HVAC company known for its excellence in residential and light commercial HVAC services, the showroom offers a unique opportunity for both HVAC professionals and consumers to get hands-on with the latest in heat pump technology from ducted and ductless whole home heating and cooling systems, heat pump water heaters and window heating and cooling units specifically designed to support multi-family buildings’ transition towards electrification. Among the notable products on display is a new cold climate heat pump, a standout participant in the Department of Energy (DOE) Cold Climate Heat Pump Challenge that achieved 118% of rated capacity heating output at -15 degrees Fahrenheit. The showroom also features the Midea Packaged Window Heat Pump (PWHP) – winner of the 2024 AHR Innovation Award and component of New York State’s Clean Heat for All Challenge – as well as the new EVOX G3 ducted heat pump system. The showroom will educate homeowners and contractors by illustrating the versatility of heat pump applications across different scenarios. From optimizing comfort in single-zone residential spaces to implementing comprehensive multi-zone heat pump systems, the displays are compatible with a wide range of climate conditions and living environments.
The facility will be home to heat pump solutions designed with the future in mind to help users meet the stringent demands of increasing energy efficiency and sustainability requirements. The showroom will serve as a center for contractor training programs, equipping industry professionals with the necessary expertise for installation and maintenance, while also offering personalized consultation and services for customers in the New York Metropolitan area to ensure they find the most effective heating and cooling solutions that are tailored to their specific needs.
