IceCycle products shift 90 to 95% of air conditioning energy to less expensive off-peak periods and operate more efficiently than conventional air conditioning systems. By design, our products are simple, inexpensive, and easy to install. IceCycle's 'Smart Controller" can also shift the electric load of other appliances like water heaters and pool pumps. IceCycle benefits include lower energy costs, improved power load factor, improved air conditioning operation and longer HVAC system life expectancy. Environmental benefits include reduced need for new power plants/transmission grid and reduced air emissions from existing power plants. IceCycle works for commercial, residential, multi-tenant, and retrofit applications.
IceCycle Commercial integrates our patented thermal storage controller with a conventional air conditioning condenser. Options include an air-cooled heat pump to provide both heating and cooling. IceCycle Commercial is targeted for commercial new construction and replacement applications in buildings up to 100,000 square feet..
IceCycle Home provides thermal storage for residences. With all the benefits of its commercial cousin, IceCycle Home is unobtrusive, quiet, and requires no changes within the home. IceCycle Home can be installed with new homes, or as a replacement for an inefficient outside condensing unit.
IceCycle Neighborhood combines the proven technologies of a District Energy system with Thermal Energy Storage for smaller refrigerant-based unitary equipment used in multi-tenant/multi-zone applications. It is ideal for facilities with multiple spaces that require separate metering. Big box retail and single tenant commercial facilities are also prime applications to exploit the superior efficiency of IceCycle Neighborhood.
With IceCycle Neighborhood, consumers benefit from the economies of purchasing less expensive bulk off-peak power for cooling, while leaving lights and plugs on a separate flat rate electric meter. Air conditioning energy consumption is tracked and billed separately for each air conditioning system through Neighborhood's proprietary 'Thermal Metering System.' A project developer, municipality, or neighborhood association can operate and bill a separate profit center for cooling energy, based on the amount of cooling energy consumed by each user. IceCycle Neighborhood is highly efficient, cost effective, and can be installed with new construction projects or as a retrofit to existing facilities.
IceCycle Retro inexpensively retrofits our thermal storage controller to your existing outside AC equipment. Like all IceCycle systems, it requires no changes within the building, making installation quick, easy, and inexpensive. IceCycle Retro works with all unitary rooftop package equipment, or split system condensing units.
IceCycle Air is our line of interior air-conditioning equipment, designed to work with the IceCycle product lines. Interior systems include energy efficient ductless air conditioners, conventional air handlers, specialized equipment, and smart control automation. IceCycle can provide a single source supply of all air conditioning equipment and automation. IceCycle TES products can also work with third party conventional equipment.
IceCycle products are flexible and work with all refrigerant-based unitary air conditioning equipment. Contact Trinity for unique applications and pricing.
