Is Your HVAC System Wasting 30-50% of Your Electricity?

Our free HVAC energy audit identifies inefficient equipment, quantifies electricity waste, and provides data-driven ROI projections for inverter-driven replacements. Most commercial clients recoup upgrade costs within 2-4 years through energy savings alone.

What You'll Receive (No Cost, No Obligation):

Current vs optimal electricity consumption analysis
Equipment age and efficiency rating assessment
Projected annual savings with inverter upgrades
ROI timeline and payback period calculations

The Hidden Cost of Aging HVAC Systems

Most commercial facilities operate HVAC equipment long past its economic lifespan. While the units may still "work," they consume 40-60% more electricity than modern inverter-driven systems.

Efficiency loss per year without maintenance

A 10-year-old unmaintained system is operating at 50% original efficiency

40-60%

Electricity waste vs inverter systems

Traditional on/off compressors consume double the energy of inverter-driven units

The solution: Our energy audit identifies exactly which units are costing you the most and prioritizes replacements by ROI potential.

Example: A retail chain with 15 locations reduced HVAC electricity costs by N$420,000/year after replacing their 8 highest-consumption units identified in our audit. Investment recouped in 2.3 years.

Our Energy Audit Process

1

Equipment Inventory & Age Assessment

We document all HVAC units (make, model, capacity, installation date), identify refrigerant types (R22 phase-out urgency), and flag units older than 10 years for priority replacement consideration.

Duration: 2-4 hours on-site for typical office building

2

Electricity Consumption Analysis

Using your utility bills and amp draw measurements, we calculate current HVAC electricity costs per unit. We compare this to optimal consumption rates for inverter-driven equivalents to quantify wasted kWh.

Data required: 12 months of electricity bills (or access to utility account)

3

Performance Testing & Efficiency Rating

Thermal imaging to detect coil blockages, refrigerant pressure checks to identify leaks, temperature differential measurement (supply vs return air), and electrical performance testing including capacitor degradation.

Findings: Each unit receives an efficiency score (0-100%) and maintenance urgency rating

  • Equipment replacement cost estimates (Daikin, Mitsubishi, LG options)
  • Payback period calculations (typically 2-4 years)
  • Prioritized replacement schedule (worst offenders first)
  • Rebate and financing options where applicable

Frequently Asked

Energy Audit Questions Answered

Yes. Our HVAC energy audit is completely free for commercial facilities in Namibia—no consultancy fee, no hidden charges, and no obligation to proceed with any upgrades. We conduct the on-site assessment, analyse your electricity bills, test your units, and deliver a written report within five business days. You can use the report however you choose.
For a typical office building or retail facility with 5–15 HVAC units, the on-site portion takes 2–4 hours. We document each unit's make, model, age, amp draw, and refrigerant pressure, then run thermal imaging on the coils. For larger facilities with 20+ units or multiple floors, allow a full working day. We arrange access and scheduling around your operational hours to minimise disruption.
Twelve months of electricity bills (or access to your NamPower/City of Windhoek utility account) and a floor plan or guided walk-through of your facility. If you have maintenance records or original equipment data sheets, those help too—but they aren't required. We can reconstruct the relevant data through on-site measurement.
Most commercial facilities with HVAC units older than 8 years see electricity reductions of 30–50% after switching to modern inverter-driven systems. The exact saving depends on how old your current units are, how many hours per day they run, and the local electricity tariff. Our written report will give you a facility-specific projection using your actual consumption data, not generic estimates.
For commercial facilities in Namibia, payback periods typically run 2–4 years based on electricity savings alone, using NamPower commercial tariffs (approximately N$2.50/kWh). A facility spending N$180,000/year on HVAC electricity can reduce that to around N$108,000 with inverter systems—saving N$72,000/year. On a N$216,000 replacement investment that is a 3-year payback. Reduced maintenance and emergency repair costs shorten the payback further.
The audit report gives you factual data on your current system performance and projected savings from inverter upgrades. We provide equipment options across Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, and LG, but the report is yours to use with any contractor. Our goal is to show you the ROI so you can make a confident capital expenditure decision—whether you proceed with us or not.
