Company patents
Air Distribution Technologies IP, LLC
Air Distribution Technologies IP, LLC's patent strategy is surprisingly narrow, with 93.3% of its portfolio focused on HVAC & Air Conditioning, a category that has seen a significant decline in patenting activity, dropping by 57.1% in 2025 and 41.7% so far in 2026. This suggests a shifting priority away from its core area, despite minor, inconsistent activity in other categories like Pumps (Centrifugal) and Doors & Windows.
