Bryant Heating & Cooling Systems, a supplier of heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment, has named GAC Cooling and Heating as the 2013 Bryant Dealer of the Year. Bryant is a part of UTC Climate, Controls & Security, a unit of United Technologies Corp. Based in Gaithersburg, Md., GAC Cooling and Heating is one of 15 Bryant dealers in the U.S. and Canada to be selected as a Medal of Excellence regional winner out of more than 4,000 Bryant dealers in North America.

This is the seventh time the company has received the Bryant Medal of Excellence award, but this is its first Dealer of the Year honor. The organization was recognized with the Bryant Pinnacle Award after it earned its fifth Medal of Excellence in 2010. Medal of Excellence applicants are judged on customer satisfaction, overall Bryant branded product sales growth, high-efficiency and indoor air quality equipment sales growth and participation in various dealer programs and promotions.

The 15 regional winners come from five different geographic regions. Each region has three tiers of winners, which are based on total annual sales volume. Of the 15 Medal of Excellence winners, GAC Cooling and Heating stood out as truly embracing Bryant’s ‘Whatever It Takes’ philosophy by providing outstanding quality, satisfaction and performance, thus earning the coveted distinction of Bryant Dealer of the Year.
