Where are Bryant products made?

Is Bryant made in China or the USA?

The historical recall confirms Mexican production for the listed units. Carrier’s US investment plans show a US manufacturing commitment, but these sources do not settle China or US assembly for every current Bryant system. [2][3]

Same factory, different label

The 2007 record includes Carrier-branded units and model 84 sold through Bryant and FAST. That is a documented channel/manufacturer link for those units, not proof that all current Carrier and Bryant systems are identical. [2]
