There have been numerous eco-friendly air conditioners we have seen and talked of in the past. The world is looking for greener ways of survival, and Ice Energy’s Ice Bear air conditioner is a novel intro in the same venture. The Ice Bear 30 is a rooftop air conditioner which uses ice in order to work more efficiently. In the wee hours of the day, when houses and offices burn many watts of power - air conditioners are the most used appliance that rock the electricity bills, sending them skyrocketing. Therefore, touching least upon the time when the air conditioners are most used, Ice Energy has its Ice Bear 30 work best when all is calm - for the harder day ahead.

What’s Innovative:

The Ice Bear 30 sits perfectly on top of the air conditioning system and requires no real modification to function. The unit freezes water in the insulated storage system, in (late nights), the off-peak hours of the day – like the freezer of the refrigerator does when cooling stuff — ice then cools during the day to run the air conditioner, minimizing on the amount of power that would otherwise be needed to run the machine.

Watch This:

The water that has been frozen the previous night will be provided into the air conditioners through the modified evaporator coil within the conditioners, to maintain efficiency – however, the entire efficiency of Ice Bear 30 would depend directly on the storing capacity of the tank. This innovative device has been put up for manufacturing and shall be soon into distribution too.
