Action Air Systems, LLC (“Action Air”), a commercial HVAC services provider operating across Southern New England, has acquired Air Comfort Systems, Inc. of Wallingford, Connecticut. The transaction is a tuck-in that expands Action Air's footprint across southern Connecticut, including the Wallingford and greater New Haven markets. Action Air is a partner company of NexCore, a multi-region commercial HVAC platform backed by Dallas-based private equity firm Trinity Hunt Partners.
The asset.
Founded in 1995 and headquartered in Wallingford, Air Comfort is a service-focused commercial HVAC provider specializing in preventative maintenance, repair, and replacement work. The company serves a diverse base of commercial and industrial customers throughout southern Connecticut, anchored by long-standing relationships and recurring maintenance contracts. Founder and owner John Hauser will remain involved through a transition period to support integration and ensure continuity for employees and customers.
The platform behind it.
NexCore is building a maintenance-driven commercial services platform spanning HVAC, electrical, controls, and plumbing, with partner companies that include Alliance Group, Pratt & Smith, Sylvester & Cockrum, Kennedy Mechanical, Avonda Air Systems, and others. NexCore CEO Steve Knowles framed the acquisition around recurring revenue and customer relationships — the same thesis driving consolidation across commercial HVAC: buy service-oriented businesses with sticky maintenance bases, preserve the local team, and add density market by market.
