FORSYTHE PLUMBING & HEATING CORP.

What this record means

The record shows that “FORSYTHE PLUMBING & HEATING CORP.” is a live, registered service mark owned by FORSYTHE PLUMBING & HEATING CORPORATION, a New York corporation. It covers plumbing, drainage, fire sprinkler and heating equipment installation, maintenance and repair under class 037. A similar name would raise the closest concern for businesses offering those same services, especially in the same geographic area. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “FORSYTHE” or “PLUMBING & HEATING CORP.” in unrelated contexts. The mark is on the Principal Register, so the prosecution history shows a straightforward registration with no supplemental register steps. The latest maintenance event was the October 11, 2019 renewal, keeping the mark active. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that use in plumbing or heating services could be seen as infringing this active mark.
