CLIMATE CLASS DV-22W Wireless Vacuum Gauge Takes First Place in the Electronic Tools Category
Aurora, IL, July 29, 2024 — JB Industries, the premier manufacturer of American-made HVACR tools, was recognized for excellence in product design in the 2024 Dealer Design Awards Program, sponsored by The Air Conditioning, Heating & Refrigeration News magazine. The company’s CLIMATE CLASS DV-22W Wireless Vacuum Gauge was the Gold winner in the Electronic Tools category.
The ACHR NEWS is the leading trade magazine in the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration industries. An independent panel of contractors acted as judges in the contest.
“We are honored to receive this award and proud to offer technicians an innovative design with the DV-22W,” said Dave Madden, Director of Product Development for JB Industries. “The ability to take the DV-22W’s fitting apart to allow direct access to the sensor for easy cleaning and filter changing addresses concerns of contamination which could lead to damage or inaccurate readings.”
JB includes ten sensor filters with the DV-22W to provide an additional layer of protection.
“We designed the vacuum gauge with a large OLED display that rotates 360 degrees,” Madden added. “This makes it easy for technicians to read it from virtually any angle.”
Sarah Harding, publisher of The NEWS, stated, “These awards give us a unique opportunity to recognize the outstanding research and development efforts that go into many of the products serving the HVACR industry, and the awards issue gives our readers an opportunity to read about innovative installation and service solutions.”
The DV-22W Wireless Vacuum Gauge is part of JB’s A2L-Compatible CLIMATE CLASS Wireless Tool Suite, which features pressure probes, temperature clamps, psychrometers, and manifolds. Like all of JB’s CLIMATE CLASS tools, the DV-22W can be used in standalone mode, or with its wireless capabilities, allowing technicians to monitor and document system evacuations through JB’s free app, JB GO V2.
“We’re thrilled to accept the Gold for the DV-22W,” said Jeff Cherif, President and Co-owner of JB Industries. “We're witnessing a significant shift to wireless technology, simplifying tasks for technicians. JB is dedicated to manufacturing tools that combine ease of use with unparalleled durability, reflecting our core values as an American manufacturer.”
CLIMATE CLASS tools are available for purchase through HVACR wholesale distributors nationwide.
Winning entries in the Dealer Design Awards were featured in the July 29, 2024, issue of The ACHR NEWS, which is distributed nationally to over 27,000 HVACR contractors, wholesalers, distributors, and other industry professionals. For more information and further coverage, visit www.achrnews.com.
