 How it works
Climate Wizard indirect evaporative air conditioners use a hyper-efficient counter-flow
heat exchanger to produce 100% fresh, cool, outside air, with no added moisture.

The fresh cold air produced by Climate Wizard can be similar to that produced by refrigerated
systems, with temperatures that approach the ambient dew-point temperature.

1. Hot air enters the cooler – No moisture is transferred across the membranes
between the dry and wet channels; only temperature
– Hot outside air enters the cooler via the inlet.
(heat) is transferred.
– A powerful, energy-efficient, electric fan moves
– The heat passes out of the air in the dry channels
the air towards the core.
through the membrane and into the air passing
through the wet channels.
2. Hot air passes through the core
– In this way, the air in the dry channels becomes
– The core is an air-to-air heat exchanger consisting progressively colder but gains no moisture.
of alternating dry and wet channels.
– All of the air passes along the dry channels 4. Fresh, cool outside air passes into the building
and gains no additional moisture.
– The air passing along the dry channels in the core
is cooled, with no moisture added.
3. Warm, moist air exhausted outside
– This fresh, cool air passes into the building.
– As the air exits the dry channels, a portion of the
conditioned air is returned through the wet channels.
– Through evaporation and conduction, it gains both
moisture and heat. The channels are continuously
soaked with water. This moist, warm air is then
exhausted outside of the building.

 Performance comparison
Climate Wizard vs refrigerated cooling Climate Wizard’s cooling performance
can rival that of refrigerated systems,
as temperature rises using up to 80% less energy.
That’s not only great for reducing power bills;
it’s also great for the environment. And, no
matter how hot it gets outside, Climate Wizard
uses the same amount of power and still delivers
% increase or decrease

100% fresh, cool air inside.

This is in direct contrast to refrigerated systems,
which require increasing amounts of power
as outside temperatures rise. Climate Wizard’s
cost-saving capabilities actually increase, when
the heat is at its highest.
At the same time, Climate Wizard’s performance
also increases as temperatures rise – again,
95 100.4 105.8 111.2
in complete contrast to refrigerated systems.
