Albireo, known for building management systems (BMS) and HVAC systems in Alabama, will add Lennox products to its portfolio, specifically unitary, splits, and variable-refrigerant flow (VRF) systems. The Albireo engineering, service, operations, and sales teams have been factory-trained to sell, commission, and service Lennox systems, an Albireo press release said.
