C. Cowles & Co. (New Haven, CT) has acquired substantially all of the assets of Carlin Combustion Technology Inc. of East Longmeadow, MA. Carlin is a manufacturer of burners and controls for the heating industry. Cowles’ Hydrolevel Division is in the same industry and is a manufacturer of low water cut offs, temperature limit/LWCO combination controls, level controls and flow switches.

By combining technologies with Carlin, Cowles will be able to offer more comprehensive burners and controls that will provide significant increases in performance, efficiency and fuel conservation for homes and the HVAC industry.

Both companies are said to be leaders in their fields with Carlin providing the highest quality burners and controls for residential and commercial boilers, hot water heaters and furnaces. Carlin’s recent announcement of its H2L two-stage burner has set the stage for more efficient burner technology. Hydrolevel, on the other hand, has provided controls for the boiler industry with its most recent product introduction, the Hydrostat. This boiler control has gained wide industry acceptance and is viewed as a forerunner of new energy efficient multipurpose boiler controls.

For the time being, both Carlin and Hydrolevel will operate with their existing management and remain in their present facilities.
