Commercial heating and cooling specialist Merriott has appointed a new, dedicated sales director for Ireland.

Pat O’Donnell brings 16 years’ experience in the heating industry to the newly created position, which includes four years as an area sales manager for Merriott (part of the QRL Radiator Group), between 2000 and 2005.

As sales director for the company’s Irish division, he will head up a four-strong team of specialist sales representatives, spanning the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.

He will help architects, specifiers and M&E consultants with enquiries about Merriott’s leading range of bespoke commercial radiators and radiant panels. He will also be on hand to provide customers with expert advice and tailored, start-to-finish project support, from the initial specification and design stages through to ongoing maintenance.
