"PAIR' SYSTEM ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

EXTENDED ROOF LIFE EXTENDED MECHANICAL LIFE

The PAIR system's reduction of roof surface temperatures from 175F+ degrees to 99F- degrees has ancillary benefits to the roof system and roof level mechanical equipment.

	Threshold - Asphalt Thermal Degradation - 120F degrees
	Threshold - Asphalt Thermal Shock - 140F - degrees.
	Reduced operating temperatures at air intakes, coils and compressors.

While the commercial roofing market is comprised of more than asphalt roofing, it makes up the largest percentage of commercial applications. While it is not feasible to install a PAIR system on every new asphalt roof system, the anticipated increase of roof life by 25% would equal thousands of buildings the size of a large grocery store. This would hold true for typical roof level mechanical equipment with a standard 15 year life cycle.

RENEWABLE ENERGY - RECLAIMED WATER

To make eCOOLogy even better, in this world of shrinking resources, it is designed to operate with reclaimed or recycled water. Instead of using potable water – always in short supply – the system is designed to operate with recycled water that is currently thrown away in staggering quantities.

On June 4, 2000, the Silicon Valley region of Northern California suffered the first of a number of serious electrical blackouts. Businesses were interrupted with only a few minutes notice. Homes went dark without warning. Millions of dollars were lost in that single day.

On that day, nearly 200 million gallons of reclaimed water were dumped into San Francisco Bay. The area has a “Slow the Flow” policy; seeking ways to reduce this dumping because it is destroying the ecology of the Bay.

On that same day, if eCOOLogy were installed on the roofs of the industrial centers of the area, 3 million gallons of water would have been evaporated off those roofs – saving enough electrical power to stop the blackouts. Three million gallons of water used productively, three million gallons less water dumped into the Bay.
