The parent company of Amana appliances depends on whether you mean Amana home appliances like refrigerators and washers or Amana HVAC heating and cooling equipment, as they have different owners. For Amana home appliances including refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, and ranges, the parent company is Whirlpool Corporation, which is headquartered in Benton Harbor, Michigan, and is one of the largest appliance manufacturers in the world owning Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Amana brands. Whirlpool acquired Amana appliances in 2001 from Goodman Global, and Amana was originally founded in 1934 in Middle Amana, Iowa. For Amana HVAC including furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps, the parent company is Daikin Industries, Ltd., headquartered in Osaka, Japan, which is the world's largest HVAC manufacturer and owns Goodman Manufacturing in Waller, Texas, where Amana HVAC products are made alongside Goodman and Daikin branded HVAC equipment. Daikin acquired Goodman and its Amana HVAC brand in 2012. So for refrigerators and laundry, Amana parent is Whirlpool, while for heating and cooling, Amana parent is Daikin Industries, so you need to distinguish appliance type.
