Marin H2O’s current Powered Companies page presents Gene Burch as its plumbing and HVAC company. The same portfolio page lists Marin H2O plumbing, Westward Builders construction, Culligan water treatment, and Sonoma Marin Plumbing. This describes the group’s current public positioning; it does not establish the legal structure of the 2024 transaction.
Gene Burch’s current service pages also advertise boiler installation and replacement, as well as heat-pump replacement. Those are examples of services offered now, not evidence that any particular product or model was part of the deal.
