Bluon, Inc., a fast-growing company with a mission to increase the capacity, performance, and GMV of the HVAC-R industry by empowering its technicians, has received the top software innovation award ahead of the 2022 AHR Expo.

The Expo is the HVAC-R industry’s premier event and the award is sponsored by ASHRAE and AHRI, the global standards for HVAC-R. Bluon’s support platform is a revolutionary mobile app that makes HVAC technicians in the field more effective, more efficient, and more capable. Its members are given access to 24/7 live support, just-in-time training, tools, a powerful database of over 45,000 unique HVAC-R models, and soon a method to connect directly to their local distributors to make informed purchases.

First scalable solution

Bluon is more than a mobile app, it’s more than a support platform,” said Peter Capuciati, chairman and CEO at Bluon. “Bluon is 70,000 HVAC-R technicians, soon to be 150,000 or half the industry, who are supported and connected like never before. Bluon is the first scalable solution that is actually making a difference in helping to minimize the skilled labor shortage that continues to plague the HVAC-R industry.”

Bluon seeks to expand local relationships between local technicians and their local distributors

The Bluon support platform, which more than 70,000 HVAC-R member technicians depend on every day, is set to become the first brand-agnostic, supplier-agnostic marketplace for all of HVAC-R. With a mission fundamentally based on empowering HVAC technicians, Bluon seeks to enhance and expand local relationships between local technicians and their local distributors.

Future of HVAC-R technology

Bluon has solidified its position as an innovator within the HVAC market, by creating the first mobile app and software solution to be self-adopted by technicians at scale,” Capuciati said.

This award makes it clear to the industry that Bluon has now fully evolved into the largest, brand-agnostic mobile app and software platform in HVAC-R.” The AHR Expo will be held from Jan. 31 to Feb. 2 in Las Vegas. Manufacturers of all sizes and specialties will come together to share ideas and showcase the future of HVAC-R technology. Bluon will be on-site at booth C2737.
