Heating and Ventilating

The world leader in air-conditioning and heating systems is changing the name of its UK and international rental businesses known as Longville to Carrier.
The Longville Group, acquired in 2006, will change its name to Carrier Rental Systems and the overseas holding company will be changed to Carrier Rental Systems International Ltd.

Richard Jones general manager of Carrier Rental Systems and Carrier Rental Systems International said 'the Carrier Rental Systems name will be adopted and emphasized in the UK temperature control businesses. 'The two long-standing pump brands in Europe will remain unchanged - SLD in the UK and Pompfontijine in Holland.'

He added 'Carrier is serious about rental as a business and has formed a global rental structure to give focus and concentrate expertise. Carrier plans to develop the business around the areas of its core rental equipment expertise: pumps and temperature control, supported by temporary power supply rental'.
