Limit of one (1) nomination per charitable organization. Multiple submissions for the same charitable organization do not increase that nominee’s chances of being selected.

Selection Process and Criteria.

The Sponsors will select up to three (3) finalists from all nominations received during the Nomination Period for each participating Distributor (“Finalists”). The number of Finalists chosen will vary by Distributor location, based on the number of nominations received and caliber of nominations received based on the criteria set out below. Selection criteria (weighted equally) will include:

• a Nominee’s need for commercial refrigeration equipment,
• degree of financial hardship and
• significance of community impact.

Distributors or their representatives willrequire an inspection of Finalists’ facilities for suitability as part of the final recipients selection process. Sponsors will then select one (1) recipient per participating Distributor, based on the above criteria and inspection (each, a “Recipient”). Sponsors may also elect not to select any Recipient to receive the commercial refrigeration equipment if no Nominee meets the selection criteria and qualifies for the Refrigeration System based on the inspection. Selection of the Recipients shall be at the sole discretion of the Sponsors. Recipient selection and notification will take place on or around February 15, 2025. Installation of the equipment, if any, will take place on a mutually agreed to date following March 1, but no later than October 31, 2025 (the “Install Period”), unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Heatcraft.

New Commercial Refrigeration Equipment Details: Selected Recipients will each be given one (1) Heatcraft-branded refrigeration system (including, but not limited to a condensing unit, unit cooler and intelliGen refrigeration controller) appropriate for Recipient’s facility, and installation of the system (collectively, the “Refrigeration System”). The Refrigeration System shall consist of either a Heatcraft medium temperature condensing unit and evaporator with intelliGenTM refrigeration control (approximate retail value $21,967 U.S.D). In addition, the equipment will be covered by Heatcraft’s standard Limited Warranty that accompanies such equipment. Nothing else is included.
