Luce, Schwab & Kase: Nearly Four Decades of Partnership with Mitsubishi Electric

For almost 40 years, Luce, Schwab & Kase (LSKair) has been a trusted name in the HVAC industry, proudly serving as a HVAC distributor of Mitsubishi Electric products across New Jersey and New York. What began as a forward-looking partnership in the mid-1980s has grown into one of the strongest distributor-manufacturer relationships in the region, marked by shared values, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to customer success.

At a time when ductless technology was still a relative newcomer in the United States, LSKair saw the potential of Mitsubishi Electric’s systems to transform comfort, efficiency, and flexibility in heating and cooling. Recognizing the unique needs of the Northeast market—dense cities, diverse housing stock, and demanding weather—LSKair embraced the opportunity to introduce contractors, engineers, and homeowners to a product line that would become a standard-bearer for quality and performance.

Nearly four decades later, LSK continues to be a leader in distributing Mitsubishi Electric’s world-class ductless and VRF systems. Through steady growth, market education, and a deep understanding of both the products and the communities they serve, LSK has played an integral role in establishing Mitsubishi Electric as the gold standard for ductless comfort in the New Jersey and New York region.

But the company’s success has been about more than product distribution. LSK has always believed in building lasting relationships—supporting contractors with training, technical expertise, and hands-on guidance, to help them grow their businesses. LSK is proud to offer Mitsubishi Certified Training Centers for both residential and commercial equipment. If you’re a contractor looking to become certified in installing Mitsubishi, LSK is proud to offer award winning classes.

This dedication to education and service has been central to LSKair’s longevity. While products evolve and technologies advance, the company’s mission has remained consistent: to be a reliable partner that contractors, engineers, and homeowners can count on. Mitsubishi Electric’s reputation for innovation in energy-efficient heating and cooling solutions has been the perfect complement to LSKair’s legacy of customer-focused distribution.

The New Jersey and New York markets are among the most dynamic in the country, with a wide range of residential and commercial needs. From brownstones in Brooklyn to suburban homes in Bergen County, from high-rise office buildings in Manhattan to schools and community centers across the region, Mitsubishi Electric systems have provided tailored comfort solutions for decades. LSKair has been at the center of this transformation, ensuring availability, providing technical know-how, and building trust every step of the way.

As LSKair approaches 40 years as a proud distributor of Mitsubishi Electric, the company remains focused on the future. With increasing demand for energy-efficient, sustainable HVAC solutions, and with growing recognition of ductless and VRF technology, the partnership is as relevant today as it was in its earliest days.
