Overview

Bluon operates a mobile support platform and app that provides tools, training and 24/7 technical support for HVAC-R technicians and aggregates technical data on more than 45,000 HVAC models. The app is widely adopted: the company reports more than 175,000 downloads, 88,000 onboarded member technicians (growing by about 6,000 each month), nearly 30% of the U.S. market registered as members and roughly 2% of the market joining each month. Bluon has hundreds of distributors in its network and recently acquired XREF Publishing Company, expanding its reach within the industry. The company is developing an e-commerce platform called BluonLive and plans to invest the new capital in software development and rapid growth of its sales and technician support teams. Bluon positions itself to enable contractors to complete more jobs per day, addressing the HVAC-R skilled labor shortage and aiming to be the first brand-agnostic, demand-focused e-commerce platform for the $70B HVAC-R industry.
