HVAC Smart Fluid is Tune’s energy technology that restores HVAC systems to peak operating efficiency by reversing oil fouling inside refrigerant tubing. With a one-time injection, it clears existing buildup and prevents future fouling for the life of the system.
Over time, lubricant oil migrates through HVAC systems and adheres to the interior walls of refrigerant tubes. This process—known as oil fouling—restricts heat transfer, increases friction, and forces equipment to work harder to deliver the same level of heating or cooling.
Like cholesterol buildup in the human body, oil fouling gradually degrades system performance, increasing energy demand and accelerating wear.
Industry data shows that HVAC efficiency begins declining immediately:
According to ASHRAE, oil fouling can reduce HVAC performance by 30% or more over time.
HVAC Smart Fluid reverses oil fouling through a single, permanent injection into the HVAC system.
Once applied, the fluid:
The result is HVAC performance restored to near day-one operating efficiency, without mechanical replacement or system downtime.
By removing oil-related restrictions, HVAC Smart Fluid enables systems to operate as originally designed:
Instead of compensating for internal resistance, HVAC equipment can deliver consistent performance with less effort.
HVAC Smart Fluid is designed for fast, low-impact deployment:
Once installed, the solution works continuously in the background to protect system performance.
By addressing oil fouling at its source, HVAC Smart Fluid helps facilities:
It’s a technology-first approach to solving a problem that traditional maintenance can’t reach.
HVAC Smart Fluid is a core component of Tune’s integrated Energy Tech and Facility Services offering—focused on restoring efficiency, improving power quality, and simplifying facility operations at scale.
