Efficient and Clean Cooling Technologies

TORO WATT – a Canadian HVAC technology company based in Ontario, is a signatory to the Advanced Cooling Challenge, an initiative of Clean Energy Ministerial where TORO WATT committed to introducing a 50% more energy efficient residential Air Conditioner. TORO WATT designed & developed the Room Air Conditioner based on Dual Path Technology using conventional refrigerants for the time being but reduced refrigerant charge by 50% for the given capacity. Mass production of these units requires minor changes to the current manufacturing processes. The outcome besides reducing the refrigerant emissions by 50%, will also reduce the carbon footprint of the air conditioner by 50% reducing strain on the already stressed ecosystem. This changeover will actually be an opportunity to achieve a leapfrog effect when integrated with natural refrigerants like hydrocarbons /ammonia in the residential air conditioning. This should happen as the next logical step and sooner.

This Room Air conditioner is designed, keeping in view the present limitations of the existing products such as no fresh air access, inability to take advantage of free cooling, capacity loss at temperatures above 35ºC and poor after sales service culture in Asia.

It integrates compressor-less sensible cooling with highly flexible and energy efficient inverter compressor for most efficient latent cooling in a single package. Energy used for condensation of water vapor is also recovered by upcycling the condensate to remove sensible heat from return air by retro phase change process.

The advanced psychometric process helps in reducing the input energy and refrigerant use besides offering the highest SEER compared to any other Air Conditioner manufactured anywhere on the planet.
