About the AIRCOSAVER - Installation

The AIRCOSAVER is designed to be installed into existing systems as an after market fit. Installation is simple and takes approximately 15 minutes (depending on local situations). A detailed step-by-step installation manual is provided with each AIRCOSAVER.

Installation overview

For clarity's sake the images below illustrate the installation of an AIRCOSAVER into a small window unit. However, the installation steps are basically the same for many other types of aircon units. The AIRCOSAVER is suited for a wide range of air conditioning types such as single-split systems, packaged units or small central aircon units.

Here are extended Installation & Demo Guidelines (e.g. split units)

1. Provided material 2. Additional required material
3. Disconnect power and remove covers 4. Find a suitable location
5. Check for wiring diagram 6. Interrupt compressor (or compressor contactor) switching wire. This is the cable through which the thermostat tells the compressor to run or stop.
7. Route this switching wire through the AIRCOSAVER (i.e. the AIRCOSAVER is now logically in series with the thermostat). Connect power to the AIRCOSAVER. 8. Position sensor in supply air stream (schematic)
9. Position sensor in supply air stream (example) 10. Replace covers

Congratulation! Installation is complete. Your AC system is ready to save energy.

For which systems is the AIRCOSAVER suitable?

The standard version is suitable for most residential and light commercial DX (direct expansion) AC systems, e.g. window units, wall-mounted units, single splits and small packaged units.

If you would like to use it on larger systems, industrial units or on different applications such as reverse cycle air conditioning (incl. heating) or cold storage cooling, please contact us for customized versions.

The standard AIRCOSAVER should not be used with chilled water systems, evaporative cooling systems, the latest inverter type split systems and multi split systems.



Please note: Installing and servicing air conditioning equipment can be hazardous due to system pressures and electrical components. Although AIRCOSAVER installation is quick and simple, it should only be conducted by trained electricians or HVAC contractors to ensure proper system setup and maximum savings.
