The Trane Comfort Specialist certification means the independent Trane dealer is of the highest standing and committed to being the best in every aspect of his or her business, from installation and service, to customer satisfaction and employee training. Not every dealer qualifies as a Trane Comfort Specialist, but rather only those that meet Trane’s stringent standards and demonstrate a commitment to customer satisfaction and continuing education. These dealers are committed to training to keep up to date with Trane’s latest technology, ensuring that you receive a system that is designed to achieve maximum efficiency, reliability and comfort – and a system that delivers the efficiency its ratings promise and you expect. Many Trane Comfort Specialist dealers also have North American Technician Excellence (NATE) certified technicians. NATE is an independent, third-party non-profit certification which is earned through tests which validates the technician’s knowledge and a training program’s instruction. Organizations that are part of the NATE coalition include the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers.
