Morgan Stanley Capital Partners Completes Investment in Sila Heating & Air Conditioning

Investment funds managed by Morgan Stanley Capital Partners (“MSCP”), the middle-market focused private equity team at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, have completed an investment in Sila Heating & Air Conditioning (“Sila” or the “Company”), from investment funds managed by Dubin Clark & Company, Inc. MSCP is partnering with the current management team led by CEO Lou Pellegrini, and founder, Jack Rothacker, who will continue to lead the business.

Headquartered in King of Prussia, PA, Sila is a leading provider of residential HVAC, plumbing and electrical services in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. The business is a multi-brand platform that has grown organically over the past thirty years as well as through acquisitions.

Adam Shaw, Managing Director and Head of Business Services at MSCP, said: “We are excited to partner with Sila and its talented management team as they continue to build the company into the leading residential services platform in the Northeast. Sila’s track record of consistent growth and strong, client-centric culture are a testament to what the management team has built over the past 30 years. We look forward to working together to continue expanding the company through organic growth and strategic acquisitions.”

MSCP’s investment in Sila is consistent with the team’s focus on services sector companies that provide high quality, outsourced services with superior customer acquisition capabilities. Sila, MSCP’s latest investment in the sector, is the team’s second investment of 2021 following Nivel Parts and Manufacturing earlier this month.

“We could not be more excited to be working with MSCP for the next chapter of our Company’s growth and evolution,” said Lou Pellegrini, CEO of Sila. “Our team has always been focused on delivering high quality heating and air conditioning services to consumers in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions and MSCP’s support will help us continue on that mission. The team’s approach to operational excellence as well as their experience completing add-on acquisitions will be invaluable as we look to add brands under the Sila umbrella in the coming years.”
