ThermaClear®
Eliminate Oil-Fouling
With one treatment, you can restore peak HVAC efficiency, reduce energy costs, and extend equipment life across your facility.
Ensuring Long-Term HVAC Performance
According to ASHRAE, oil-fouling reduces HVAC efficiency by 7% in the first year, 5% in the second year, and 2% annually thereafter. Over the lifetime of your equipment, that lost efficiency adds up to thousands of dollars in wasted energy and unnecessary wear.
As compressors age, lubricating oil migrates from the compressor into the heat exchanger coils, forming a thin insulating layer that impedes heat transfer. This forces your HVAC systems to work harder and run longer to maintain temperature, driving up energy costs, increasing carbon emissions, and raising the risk of expensive repairs or premature equipment replacement.
Oil-fouling is unavoidable in any system that uses oil-lubricated compressors. Mechanical solutions such as oil separators and chemical flushes offer only temporary relief and cannot fully eliminate the buildup. Until now, no cost-effective, permanent solution existed.
Eliminate Oil-Fouling and Protect Your Equipment
Key Benefits of ThermaClear
- Restores Maximum Energy Efficiency – Displaces oil buildup from heat exchanger surfaces, ensuring optimal heat transfer and reducing energy waste.
- Extends Equipment Lifespan – Super-lubricates compressors, reducing internal wear and tear and lowering the risk of costly HVAC failures.
- Cuts Maintenance Costs – Minimizes theneed for expensive repairs, part replacements, and excessive servicing caused by oil-fouled systems.
- Prevents Future Oil-Fouling – Forms a permanent protective barrier inside the system, eliminating ongoing efficiency loss over time.
- Reduces Downtime and Improves Reliability – Ensures consistent cooling performance and uninterrupted building operations for your tenants and occupants.
