RTUs are used in more than one third of U.S. commercial buildings, the highest of any cooling equipment type. Why? They are reliable and have a low capital cost, as well as established service and distribution networks. There is anecdotal evidence, however, that these systems operate inefficiently.

To validate or refute this evidence, we conducted a multi-level field study sponsored by Minnesota Department of Commerce, Division of Energy Resources. The objective—characterize existing RTUs and the new/replacement market, as well as monitor existing RTU energy performance.

Tune in to hear about what we learned and/or check out additional information related to the study.
