HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.,
June 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/
-- Greenway Design Group, Inc. (GDGI) president and chairman
Ben Lefrancois today explained how
the company calculates their customers' return on investment from
the purchase of Cool-n-Save pre-cool misting systems for commercial
air conditioning.
"The customer's return on investment is an estimate of the
balance between the energy savings generated and the first year
cost of the Cool-n-Save system, which includes the cost of new
equipment, installation, and the first year of maintenance,"
Lefrancois explains.
"Our most popular Cool-n-Save configuration, the Hero-50
pump/filter system, including the first year to replace water
filters and chemistry, may cost our customer between $15,000 and $25,000. Installation details
determine final cost: distance from water and power supply, number
and distance between condensing coils, and other factors. The other
side of the equation is the estimated energy savings. Most of
Greenway's customers see between 22 to 33% reduction in energy use
from air conditioning. For a nominal Hero-50 installation, we'd
expect the monthly energy reduction to be between $1,250 and $2,000," he says.
Actual energy reduction (savings) depends on the condition of
the HVAC equipment, climate, and the number of air conditioning
months. For that reason, each Cool-n-Save system must be custom
configured. "We chose from four different Cool-n-Save pump/misting
models and deploy them to ensure the most economical situation
possible," says Lefrancois.
Since Greenway dealers perform all maintenance, the estimate
includes estimated labor and the purchase price of proprietary
filtration supplies from the company based on an expected schedule.
"The cost of expendables, like our Cool Release water treatment
chemistry and nano filters, is determined by water quality and
system usage."
Lefrancois points out that the company focus on customer's
"return on investment" is a very strong draw. "Although the ROI
calculation is only an estimate and not a guarantee, our customers
see that there is a point where they may recoup their cost," he
says. According to Greenway's customer records, the fastest ROI was
3 months, generated by a large data storage and networking facility
in Las Vegas, NV.
Greenway markets their pre-cool technology under the trademark
"Cool-n-Save." Independent studies field studies (in Nevada and
Costa Rica) show that Cool-n-Save evaporative pre-cooling systems
may produce energy cost savings as high as 30%, with an average
savings of about 26% from air conditioning use during peak heat
seasons. The company has been developing pre-cool misting
technology since 2005. Greenway received a "green engineering"
award co-sponsored by TechAmerica and Harvey
Mudd College in 2011. For more information, call
