Irvine-based Bluon Inc, a support platform for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) technicians, said it has received $27.6 million in equity financing in a series B round led by existing primary capital partner, Ecosystem Integrity Fund.
The financing adds to the company’s recently completed $9 million in venture debt. Bluon is led by CEO Peter Capuciati.
The round also included significant participation from MacKinnon, Bennett & Company, a Canadian growth equity firm investing in innovative companies shaping the future of energy and transportation sectors.
The new capital will be primarily used in developing Bluon’s e-commerce platform, called BluonLive, and in particular for software development and rapid growth in its sales teams and technician support teams, the company said in a statement yesterday.
