SPX Corporation’s subsidiary, The Marley Company, LLC, recently purchased Patterson-Kelley, a manufacturer and distributor of commercial boilers and water heaters. The strategic acquisition will broaden SPX’s HVAC platform in the high-efficiency boiler segment of the heating market.

Patterson-Kelley will operate as a subsidiary of SPX, and a part of the broader SPX HVAC platform, which consists of products from Weil-McLain, Marley Engineered Products, SPX Cooling Technologies and now Patterson-Kelley.

Commercial And Residential Boilers

John Swann, President of SPX’s HVAC Heating and Location & Inspection groups, commented, “Patterson-Kelley’s strong brand, technology, and high-quality line of commercial boilers and water heaters are the perfect complement to SPX’s HVAC heating platform and Weil-McLain’s existing portfolio of commercial and residential boilers.”

This acquisition broadens SPX’s high efficiency product offering and significantly strengthens our market coverage and application support capabilities,” said Swann. “Specifying engineers and design-build contractors will be able to select from a wide range of high-efficiency commercial boilers from 399 MBH to 4,000 MBH, allowing us to better serve all major segments of the hydronic heating market. Weil-McLain will continue to sell primarily through its best-in-class distribution network, while Patterson-Kelley will focus more on engineering-driven project sales.”
