Hi Everyone,

I heard of an energy saving device called "XXXXXX" to be used in conjunction with existing air cooled HVAC systems(As a retrofit)which can give as much as 20% saving on energy.They claim in water cooled systems 8%.no moving parts at all.I saw some of the testimonials also .Is there any such device which can save this much electrical energy without deteriorating any performance of the system?Is it advisable to fit ?
Expecting valuable replies from you guys.
Thanks in advance.

Yu can contact the manufacturer company and discuss with their application engineers, they would be happy to help you and this is their job.
 
If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.

Does it use water maybe? evap cooling on a dx condenser would get you saving like that....
water on a condenser that isn't coated correctly will rot the coil.
I have a timer that can force your AC off for 12 minutes an hour, thats a 20% saving right there no?
 
Waramanga, your timer sounds like a winner and with a bit of adjustment it would be possible to give you 100% saving.
