Phase Change Energy Solutions-National Retrofit Rollout Begins

In San Diego, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Guam a big rollout is underway.  Phase Change Energy Solutions has kicked off their six locale rollout of the innovative thermal mass product in commercial buildings.

What are Phase Change Materials (PCM) you ask?

Phase change materials do just what their name implies-change "phases" (for example, liquid to solid or solid to liquid) between set temperatures. A October 2009 Metal Construction News article describes it best as during the process of liquefying and solidifying within a set temperature range, PCMs absorb, store and release large amounts of energy. The report notes that these natural properties of latent heat energy help maintain a product's or structure's temperature and buffer it from temperature swings. PCMs recharge as ambient (outdoor) temperatures fluctuate, making them ideal for many everyday applications.

There is no question that available in a variety of forms, bio-based PCMs have myriad applications in the construction industry, with the most popular uses being an aid to insulation, and in flooring and ceiling tiles. They also can be used in bridges and sidewalks to prevent icy surfaces from forming.

Four years ago ,the industry magazine pointed out that PCMs are effective in residential and commercial new construction and remodels. The material works by absorbing and releasing energy(heat) based on the outside temperature to regulate the inside temperature of a structure. During the day it absorbs heat (cools), and at night it releases heat (heats). This makes a structure's energy cycle more efficient-intelligently capturing and releasing otherwise wasted energy.

Today, the way forward is much simpler.

1.You provide us Energy Bills for at least 12 months of service to your facility.

2.We make a site visit to inspect actual mechanical equipment and take installation measurements.

3.We will present proposal for Guaranteed Energy Savings and free labor and materials.

4.We will also install Measurement and Verification Data (M&V) Loggers for a test period, (typically 15 days) to establish energy use-then we review the data with you.

5.We install the bioPCM and run for 15 days to show energy savings.

6.If documented savings not as good as promised, product remains free. If energy saving is met, then you pay for product based upon a 5 year ROI.
