HVAC Smart Chip is Tune’s energy technology that optimizes HVAC fan operation to eliminate wasted latent energy and improve overall system efficiency. By intelligently extending fan run time, it helps facilities reduce unnecessary cycling and operate more smoothly.
In most commercial HVAC systems, inefficiency occurs after the thermostat is satisfied. The system shuts off, the fan completes its timed run, and valuable heated or cooled air remains trapped in the ductwork and coils.
Because standard air handlers lack the ability to dynamically adjust fan run time, this latent energy is wasted. The result is increased system cycling, higher electrical demand, and unnecessary wear on HVAC equipment.
HVAC Smart Chip addresses this inefficiency by customizing fan run time to push remaining hot or cold air into occupied spaces before the system fully shuts down.
Instead of producing more heating or cooling, the Smart Chip ensures existing energy is fully utilized—reducing the need for additional cycles and improving system performance.
HVAC Smart Chip delivers consistent, verifiable efficiency gains:
By reducing short cycling and unnecessary starts, Smart Chip also supports longer equipment life and more stable system operation.
HVAC Smart Chip is a low-impact technology that integrates directly into existing HVAC systems.
Once installed, the system continuously optimizes fan operation automatically.
Beyond efficiency gains, HVAC Smart Chip contributes to better overall facility performance:
It’s a simple, technology-driven approach to eliminating energy waste built into standard HVAC operation.
