PHOENIX (August 19, 2024) — ECM Technologies (ECMT), a leader in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) efficiency and energy conservation, today announced its strategic partnership with Tolin Mechanical, the leading commercial HVAC service company in the state of Arizona. The collaboration will combine Tolin’s extensive expertise in commercial HVAC preventive and predictive maintenance services and related energy sustainability services with ECMT’s industry-changing nanotechnology, ThermaClear®.
“At Tolin, we pride ourselves on offering the most innovative preventative maintenance and service solutions, and ThermaClear’s cutting-edge technology will allow us to provide our clients a level of equipment protection no other commercial HVAC company in Arizona will be able to do,” said Tolin Mechanical Arizona Business President, Bryant Kuvakos. “Our exclusive partnership with ECM Technologies allows us to introduce the ThermaClear Advantage Plus program that will enhance our service offerings and provide our clients with superior system performance and longevity. This collaboration ensures that both Tolin, as a service company, and our customers, benefit symbiotically from the increased efficiency and reliability that ThermaClear brings to HVAC systems.”
The first ThermaClear treatment under the partnership was performed in April of this year and was donated by both companies to all Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley. Subsequent treatments in recent months have included facilities for the City of Mesa and Maricopa County government, utilizing the $2.5 million City of Phoenix treatment contract that was qualified into the Strategic Alliance for Volume Expenditures (S.A.V.E.) program. Other notable companies and organizations in the Greater Phoenix area utilizing ThermaClear include JP Morgan Chase, Arizona State University, Penske Automotive, Bombardier and Phoenix Art Museum.
“We could not be happier with our strategic partnership with Tolin. We recognize the value of working with only well-known highly respected and established commercial HVAC service companies. After years of working with most of the top companies in Arizona, Tolin clearly stood out from everyone else. No one comes close to their level of service and expertise,” said ECM Technologies Chief Revenue Officer David Fenton.
ThermaClear addresses the pervasive issue of oil fouling affecting most HVAC equipment. According to The American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), oil fouling of the heat transfer surfaces for HVAC systems results in 7% efficiency loss in the first year, followed by 5% in the second year and 2% annually thereafter.
ThermaClear conquers oil fouling by clearing the coil system from the inside, removing the oil barrier and super-lubricating the compressor. In the process, it also bonds to the interior of the coil walls, forming a permanent barrier against future buildup and protecting against thermal degradation.
In addition to only requiring a single treatment of ThermaClear for the entire lifespan of the HVAC system, building owners/facility managers can expect a payback on their treatment investment in approximately 12 to 18 months. This positions ThermaClear as not only one of the most effective HVAC efficiency initiatives available on the market but also one of the most affordable.
