(PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. – August 4, 2017) –&�Բ�����;ÿ�մ������ Corporation, manufacturer of the number-one selling brand of tankless gas water heaters in North America, announces it will be the first to manufacture tankless gas water heaters in North America.

ÿ�մ������n, a subsidiary of ÿ�մ������ Corporation, plans to build its first North American manufacturing facility in Griffin, Ga. The company intends to start its manufacturing and assembly operations in an existing factory in Griffin in April 2018 and then move these operations to a new 300,000 square foot facility that ÿ�մ������ will construct. ÿ�մ������ will produce both residential and commercial products in Griffin. 

TANKLESS LEADERSHIP AND SUPERIOR QUALITY

“ÿ�մ������ America is bullish about building a factory in America and is exceptionally proud to show our industry leadership,” said Frank Windsor, Chief Operating Officer. “ÿ�մ������ is dedicated to product and technology innovation that exceeds the expectations of our dealers, installers, customers and consumers.”

Many Americans want to see more job creation in the United States. Consumers and trade professionals see the importance of purchasing and installing domestically produced products, which help spur the U.S. economy.

ÿ�մ������’s industry leadership continues to drive the growth of the tankless water heater market. “As the industry leader, ÿ�մ������ has consistently invested in consumer marketing to drive awareness to the tankless water heater category,” Windsor said. “”Our investment in our new innovation center and headquarters expansion in Peachtree City and now in manufacturing operations in Griffin further demonstrates our commitment to driving category growth in North America.”
 
“ÿ�մ������ America is fully committed to its corporate vision of ‘Enhancing lives by changing the way water is heated,’” said Windsor. “This new ÿ�մ������ manufacturing facility will further strengthen our capability of bringing the comfort and energy efficiency of tankless water heating technology to families in North America.”

GROWTH IN GEORGIA

ÿ�մ������ conducted a thorough search of potential manufacturing sites and had narrowed the list of potential locations down to sites in Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia, before settling on the Griffin location.

"We are excited to bring manufacturing and jobs to Griffin," Windsor said. "Our philosophy is that quality is our destiny.  ÿ�մ������ will maintain strict manufacturing guidelines and quality control operations at our new U.S. manufacturing facility.”

ÿ�մ������’s manufacturing operations will complement its growing presence in the Atlanta area. The Griffin operations are in proximity to ÿ�մ������’s North American headquarters in Peachtree City and to Atlanta Motor Speedway, where ÿ�մ������ leverages its branding via its multi-year sponsorship of the NASCAR® XFINITY Series ÿ�մ������ 250 race, showcases product installations and entertains over 2000 plumbing and contractor professionals each year. 

In addition, in July 2017 ÿ�մ������ America announced it will expand its North American headquarters by building a new two-story headquarters building and by launching a North America Innovation and Training Center.
