Question:
Are HVAC Manufacturers' a bit too näive in Respect to What consumers,
contractors, and techs in the field Want and Need?
As an A/C owner, would you like to be able to check the performance of your
expensive equipment with the use of a simple thermometer and humidity gauge?
I firmly believe, that I could take a manufacturing company and by
implementing "Creative Value-Added Ideas," leave the other companies in the
dust! It is about creating Values that the Consumers' and Contractors' Want
and Need.
By Implementing Value-Added Ideas, Marketing niche hooks are created that
are irresistible to potential consumers. Additionally, Contractors will push
the manufacture's equipment that is most easily and effectively serviced,
which benefits everyone in the industry as well as reducing the wasteful use
of scarce energy resources. Consumers are desperate to reduce their
expenditures on heating and air conditioning
Answer:
Sounds like another job for a wireless home automation computer. Put an
air velocity sensor (a temperature probe next to a resistor, and maybe an
RH sensor) in a duct in a heat pump and measure the airflow and air outlet
temp and room temp and RH and (possibly) outdoor temp and electrical power.
If efficiency falls, call an HVAC tech...
They could easily computerize an air conditioner to tell you what is wrong!
What would it cost? Perhaps not too much when mass produced.
When properly programmed, --it could do some amazing read-outs
Could possibly save a lot of wasted energy and high utility bill costs.
Which Heating and A/C manufacturer and contractor would you want to buy
your equipment from, the "Value Added" ones' or those that leave you in the
dark?
We need to demand that the manufacturers' provide more helpful technical
information to consumers and to the contractor's and their techs!
