What’s with American Standard and Trane, anyways?
American Standard has been an expert in heating systems since the 1800’s, when Clarence Wooley introduced the world to the cast iron radiator- They have been designing and producing innovative heating products and systems for 139 years, so far. These folks know how to make the best furnace in the industry, year after year.
The Trane Corporation was made globally famous for designing Air Conditioning coils using a spine fin design, and building compressors that could double as Army Tanks. The World’s strongest Air Conditioner has Always been Trane, since it’s Inception.
When Ingersoll Rand- Who Produces compressors and HVAC items for our U.S. Navy- so they know how to build durable- Bought both companies, they made sure that every furnace produced is an American Standard furnace, and every Air Conditioner produced is a Trane Air Conditioner, So every system gets the best of both worlds, no matter if the model says Trane, or American Standard.
And Ingersoll continues to sell both lines of equipment, continually engineering the best of the best of both heating and cooling systems on earth.
