What Engineered Equipment does

Engineered Equipment Inc. (EEI) is an independent manufacturer's representative founded in January 2001, headquartered in Oklahoma City with a Tulsa office, that specifies and distributes commercial and industrial HVAC equipment across Oklahoma. The company holds representation agreements with over 40 manufacturers across categories that include custom air handlers (notably Temtrol with FANWALL Technology), ABB variable frequency drives, Greenheck exhaust and air-movement equipment, Air Monitor airflow measurement stations, hydronic, filtration, boiler, and plumbing lines, plus an in-house 30,000+ sq. ft. filter warehouse with custom filter manufacturing. EEI r(e)Fresh is a value-added retrofit and optimization service that targets existing air handling units with planned maintenance, delivering documented annual savings per facility.

EEI generates revenue primarily as a manufacturer's rep agency, earning commissions on equipment and parts sold into commercial and industrial projects. Project-based demand is supported by an outside field-sales motion staffed by professional sales, technical, and administrative personnel, with pricing provided per project on a custom quote basis. The business model is reinforced by 100% employee ownership across approximately forty employee/owners and a single-source "best in class" positioning across all HVAC application categories.

In August 2025, EEI was acquired by Meriton, an HVAC manufacturer's representative operating in 24 states through 15 affiliate companies, granting EEI access to New Mexico and El Paso markets and shared services (accounting, HR, IT, safety, training, marketing) while EEI's existing leadership continues to operate the Oklahoma franchise. Marquee projects in EEI's portfolio include the Devon Energy Tower (over 240 custom air handlers), ConocoPhillips 19th floor retrofit, OMRF West Research Tower, St. Francis TEC Tower, and Boone Pickens Stadium.
