Can Smartcool products still achieve any energy savings on new, highly efficient air conditioning systems?
Improvements in the efficiency of air conditioning units have come from the improvements in scroll compressor design, variable speed motors on fans, and some improvements to the control of the fans. What has not changed is the way that these units control the compressor(s). As such, the ESMTM and ECO3TM compressor optimization algorithms are still able to run the compressors less while affecting the same level of cooling. Although the unit already uses less energy than older units, the Smartcool products will still reduce the energy consumption.
