HVAC/R Concepts is proud to work along-side with many of the leading companies within our heating, air conditioning and refrigeration industry. Our current affiliations include:

CPS

CPS Products is a world leader in the design and manufacturing of tools and test equipment used in the Automotive and HVACR industries. Founded in 1975, CPS has grown from a single employee and single product to over 200 employees and 1200 products.

CPS’ wholesale customers directly benefit from the CPS relationship with Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts. Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts currently provides training absolutely free when the class is scheduled through CPS. This is yet another way that CPS has built a relationship of providing quality products and service to the HVAC/R industry.

The 5-2-1 Compressor Saver is an example of a technology that Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts appreciates – simple in design, beneficial to technicians and home owners, yet the product stays true to electrical fundamentals.

NATE – North American Technician Excellence

North American Technician Excellence, Inc. (NATE) is the leading non-profit certification program for technicians in the heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC/R) industry and the only test supported by the entire industry. Several of Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts classes are NATE certified and qualify for NATE continuing education units (NATE CEU). As Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts has been teaching in the industry before NATE was established, we are currently in the process of converting our materials and courses to the proper format for NATE. Potter’s HVAC/R Concepts hopes to have all of its classes NATE approved by the end of 2010.
