Problem
Conventional HVAC systems couple temperature and humidity control, requiring separate equipment and large refrigerant volumes. This integration leads to excess energy consumption, limited setpoint precision, and higher operational costs for building owners.
Solution
7AC Technologies delivers a precision cooling platform that independently regulates temperature and humidity within a single, compact unit. The system uses sensor‑driven feedback to condition air to exact setpoints, eliminating the need for reheating or dehumidification cycles. By delivering conditioned air directly at the required conditions, the platform reduces overall HVAC energy demand by up to 50% compared with the AHRI 920 ISMRE baseline. The design also cuts refrigerant charge by as much as 33%, lowering both material costs and environmental impact. The solution can be retrofitted into existing ductwork or installed as a standalone unit, providing flexible deployment for a range of building types.
Target Audience
The primary customers are commercial building owners, HVAC contractors, and industrial facilities that require high‑efficiency climate control with independent humidity and temperature management.
