Nordyne makes gas, electric and oil furnaces, split air conditioners and heat pumps, packaged units, air handlers and coils for site-built homes, manufactured housing and national accounts; most of its equipment carries a licensed or private-label brand name rather than Nordyne's own.

Nordyne is a Missouri maker of residential heating and cooling equipment. It builds furnaces, air conditioners and heat pumps under licensed and owned names such as Maytag, Frigidaire, Gibson and Intertherm, as well as private-label brands. Long part of Nortek and later known as Nortek Global HVAC, it became part of Rheem in 2025 and again uses the Nordyne name.
