Space cooling accounts for roughly 15% of electricity used in commercial buildings - second only to lighting. ENERGY STAR certified light commercial HVAC equipment is designed to reduce energy waste and save money on your utility bills.

- is approximately 17 percent more efficient than standard equipment.
You may be interested to know that, according to the Consortium of Energy Efficiency, at least 25% of all rooftop HVAC units are oversized, resulting in increased energy costs and equipment wear. Properly sized equipment dramatically cuts energy costs, increases the life of the equipment, and reduces pollution.
If all Light Commercial HVAC products in the United States met these new requirements, the energy cost savings would grow to approximately $1 billion each year and approximately 60 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions would be prevented.
