Your Building Automation Solution Thirty years ago, Kele’s founders identified a problem with purchasing products in the HVAC / Building Automation Industry. They were contractors at the time and were frustrated because they had to go to so many different vendors to get the supplies they needed. Often getting technical advice and quality products was time-consuming and not always available. With the need to simplify product sourcing and technical support into one source — Kele was born. Made by contractors, for contractors. The concept was simple — distribute high quality, in-stock products so they could ship the day they were ordered and provide expert technical support all under one roof. Today, Kele is optimizing the past 30 years of experience to continually improve on that concept. Our technical support team has a combined industry/Kele experience of over 350 years. Our massive $10 million inventory is comprised of the best selection of top quality products. Kele offers one solution–simplifying everything from ordering to shipping and technical support.

Simple Return Process Kele’s return policy is simple — WE HANDLE ALL THE HEAVY LIFTING BECAUSE WE OWN THE INVENTORY. For you, this means that we will process your return internally without having to go through the manufacturer first (or ask you to fill out any lengthy forms), and we can even get you a replacement part shipped the same day in many cases. This keeps you from having to deal with multiple manufacturers each with their own return policy, allowing you the time to focus on your projects. Flexible Order Submission Kele makes it easy to order by providing multiple ways for ordering via phone, fax, email or web. This provides you with increased flexibility whether you’re on site, on the road or in the office. Buy American Due to the number of manufacturers Kele works with, we will assist you in buy American bid fulfillment and sourcing. We’ll help you save time by doing all of the leg work in finding your buy American product alternatives and shipping them directly to your job site.
