-->

Summer is officially upon us as temperatures begin to climb into the 90s and maybe even beyond! To keep your customers cool and to show you how much we value you, we’re offering the Samsung Smart Whisper ductless air conditioner with a $50 Samsung gift card for homeowners now through July 31.

We want to give our contractors quality products that keep them satisfied – and Samsung’s Whisper Smart air conditioner meets these standards.

Here are a few of its great features:

  • The mini-split system works without any ductwork and provides fresh, clean air.
  • It provides cool, temperature-controlled air while using the smallest amount of energy possible, almost 30% less energy than duct-based systems.
  • The unit works with the Samsung Smart Home app on smartphones, which gives users the freedom to adjust the temperature and maintain efficiency while away from home.
  • The 10-year warranty allows your customers to use the product for many years with the peace of mind that it’s protected. Customers must register their product online with Samsung.
  • It isn’t bulky or oversized and its ductless design makes it easy and quick to install.

Don’t miss out on this offer – get your customers their $50 Samsung gift card reward today. It’s only available until July 31 from Comfort Supply, just in time to make sure your customers are prepared to face off against the summer heat.

Unique ESOP Strategy Places Comfort Supply in Forbes  

0 comments


Many companies choose to give their employees a claim to the business. Usually this comes in the form of employee stock ownership plans (ESOP). However, this approach doesn’t guarantee that the employee is invested or feels ownership. At Comfort Supply, we have taken a unique ESOP approach to engage our employees. In fact, it caught the eye of Forbes this past December. 

Probably the most compelling feature of our ESOP program is our valuation approach. Instead of taking the usual route of one annual stock valuation, we created a powerful formula that allows for the valuation to be updated each month. These current valuation figured play a crucial role in our weekly staff meetings as we make projections for the coming months. These meetings and projections allow our entire team to see what our goals are and how each employee plays a part in reaching those goals.
 
Our ESOP plan allocates stock and cash to participating employee accounts. And for employees 55 or older, they can diversify a portion of their ESOP account. Another great feature of the program is that the value of an employee’s ESOP account is not taxable until they leave or retire.

At Comfort Supply, we believe that to succeed, everyone must think and act like an owner. That’s why we help our team members understand the unique role they play here and how they can contribute to the success of our company and our customers.

As a result, our employees better understand how profitability is driven, assets are used and cash is generated. We are proud that our ESOP program not only brings our team together, but also rewards them for their hard work.

I run the day-to-day business tasks with the help of my team, help with budgeting, handle any issues as they arise, boost company morale and show the employees that everything they do for the company is appreciated.

Q: What is your favorite thing about your job?

A: The people that I work with – that includes customers as well. We couldn’t be a business without them!

Smart Products at Comfort Supply  

0 comments

From smartphones and smart TVs to smart light bulbs and smart locks, Internet-connected devices have become a normal part of our daily lives. Honeywell claims that over 70 percent of houses in the U.S. have Wi-Fi and that Internet-connected thermostats will quadruple in sales by 2020. Ruud reports that over 65 percent of a home’s energy usage goes to heating, cooling and water heating. With these figures in mind, we believe in providing the best products for our contractors. Currently, we have two Wi-Fi enabled products that make controlling a home’s HVAC needs easier and more efficient for the customer.

The Honeywell Wireless Thermostat System can work with a variety of systems ranging from oil, gas, electric and heat pump. Honeywell’s Total Connect Comfort app allows customers the ability to monitor and adjust their HVAC settings from anywhere through their computer, tablet or smartphone. The thermostat can even send email alerts or communicate directly via the free app, keeping homeowners apprised of any changes in their system.


The Ruud UP17 Heat Pump takes advantage of Ruud’s EcoNet technology. The Ruud EcoNet app and web portal allow owners the ability to view and control their settings from anywhere. The UP17 Achiever Plus Heat Pump works with select Ruud products and requires an EcoNet Wi-Fi Kit and EcoNet Control Center to maximize its Internet capabilities.


Both of these products work to give your customers greater control of their homes while saving on energy costs. Customers no longer have to worry about forgetting to adjust the temperature before leaving the house; they can do it from anywhere. And coming home to a cold or hot and stuffy house is a thing of the past. They can have the system adjusting the temperature as they drive home.

Help your customers save some green by going green with these Internet enabled products. Order online or visit your local Comfort Supply store today.

Comfort Supply’s Knoxville Branch is Moving  

0 comments

Not only do our products provide our customers with comfort, but soon it will be easier and more comfortable to do business at our Knoxville branch. We are pleased to announce that this February we are moving to the old C.C. Dickson building at 1338 East Weisgarber Rd., Suite B, Knoxville, Tennessee 37909.

This move will place us closer to downtown, making it more convenient for contractors in Knoxville and those in the surrounding areas. It will also allow contractors to serve their clients faster with our daily replenishment of inventory from Cookeville, a significant increase from the twice-a-week replenishment schedule. The truck will depart Cookeville at 6 a.m., allowing us to stock the store by start of business each day.

The move will not affect our same day delivery policy. As long as the order is placed at the Knoxville store by 10 a.m., the delivery will be made that same day. We don’t know of any other distributor that makes that promise.

The new location will open on Feb. 29, 2016 without interruption of service. We invite you to visit and we look forward to serving Knoxville and the surrounding communities with greater speed and a wider selection.

Also, please mark your calendar for April 21, 2016. We’ll be having a grand opening celebration and hope you can come. Stay tuned for more information.
