About Watsco, Inc.
Watsco improves indoor living and working environments with air
conditioning and heating solutions that provide comfort regardless of
the outdoor climate. There are approximately 89 million central air
conditioning and heating systems installed in the United States that
have been in service for more than 10 years. Older systems often operate
below today’s government mandated energy efficiency and environmental
standards. Watsco has an opportunity to accelerate the replacement of
these systems at a scale greater than our competitors as the movement
toward reducing energy consumption and its environmental impact
continues. This is especially important since heating and cooling
accounts for approximately half of the energy consumed in a typical U.S.
home.
Watsco’s traditional sales channel is the sale of products from one of
its 567 locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico,
and on an export basis to Latin America and the Caribbean. This network
has been built over the last 25 years and serves 88,000 active
customers. Watsco is developing and investing in technologies to enable
sales via e-commerce, on-line marketplaces and through the retail sales
channel. As the industry leader, significant growth potential remains
given that the estimated marketplace for HVAC/R products on an
installed-basis is estimated to be $80 billion. Additional information
