Why your recovery room energy bills are so high

Why your recovery room energy bills are so high

We spend a lot of time talking about installs, performance, and reliability.

But this week, we'll talk about where your money is really going without you knowing it.​

Those little all-in-one chillers pump thousands of cubic metres of hot air directly into your recovery room.

Your air conditioner then has to work overtime to get rid of it.​

It's a vicious cycle.

You pay to cool the water, which makes heat in the air.

Then you pay again to remove that exact same heat from the room.

This leads to a massive energy bills that most don't see coming.

Most think it just comes from the sauna's.

We saw a recovery room with three indoor chillers spending an extra $600 a month just fighting the heat their own chillers were making.

That's $7,200 a year, wasted on top of their normal chilling costs.

The solution is simple, put the chillers and their heat where it belongs.

Outside.

When the heat-generating part of the chiller is outdoors, that cost vanishes.

Your air-con goes back to doing its actual job, and you stop paying twice for the same problem.​
