How to Determine HVAC Energy Savings

The best way to save HVAC energy is to reduce the factors that force equipment to work harder: dirty coils, microbial buildup, corrosion, poor condensate shedding, and degraded heat transfer. SIMIX USA addresses these issues with a 2-step process: peroxide-based cleaning followed by a thin ceramic clearcoat that helps maintain thermal conductivity, resist corrosion, and support measurable energy reductions.

The best energy-saving HVAC system is usually one that is properly maintained, protected, and operating near its original heat-transfer efficiency. Replacing equipment can help in some cases, but SIMIX USA focuses on improving existing HVAC/R assets. Its coating solutions have documented 12–24% HVAC energy reduction and can defer replacement by extending equipment life.

Start with a baseline of current HVAC energy use, operating hours, utility rates, and maintenance costs. Then compare energy use after cleaning and coating over a similar period. SIMIX USA case studies track before-and-after consumption, temperature measurements, and cost savings, such as the American Leadership Academy result showing 21.52% less HVAC energy use.

Useful data includes past utility bills, HVAC runtime, equipment type, coil condition, square footage served, local weather patterns, and maintenance history. Facilities may also track air temperature changes, coil cleanliness, condensate behavior, and service frequency. The stronger your baseline data, the easier it becomes to separate genuine savings from seasonal or occupancy-related fluctuations.

SIMIX USA reports HVAC coil coating performance of 12–24% energy savings, depending on system condition, contamination level, building load, and application quality. In one documented case, American Leadership Academy in Gilbert, Arizona achieved 21.52% less HVAC energy use and $17,005 in savings without replacing equipment.

No. HVAC energy savings can often be improved by restoring heat-transfer efficiency and protecting components from fouling and corrosion. SIMIX USA’s approach is designed for existing HVAC/R systems, using a cleaner and ceramic clearcoat to reduce energy waste, improve moisture management, and extend service life before major capital replacement becomes necessary.

The SIMIX HVAC/R system works by first removing oils, biological residue, and contaminants with a peroxide cleaner. A ceramic clearcoat is then applied to modify the surface at a microscopic level. This promotes rapid condensate shedding, resists corrosion, supports thermal conductivity, and helps maintain cleaner, more efficient HVAC components over time.

SIMIX HVAC/R coating solutions are applicable to commercial office buildings, schools, hospitals, universities, government buildings, data centers, and industrial facilities. They are especially useful where HVAC reliability, indoor air quality, energy cost control, and maintenance reduction are important to facility managers, engineers, and procurement teams.
