In the realm of HVAC systems, the battle against solar heat load is real. Exposed to the relentless glare of the sun, rooftop-mounted equipment like package units and air handlers often find themselves besieged by soaring temperatures. This not only strains the units but also wreaks havoc on energy consumption, maintenance costs, and the environment. However, there's a game-changer in town: ThermalBlock™ from Coat Zone®. Let's explore how this innovative solution is revolutionizing the fight against solar heat load.

The Challenge: Battling Solar Heat Load
Exterior temperatures of your HVAC metal cabinet can soar to 180°F, even on moderate temperature days with full solar exposure. This quickly increases the temperature within the cabinet, contributing to the cooling load of your unit. The result? A negative impact on unit run-time and lifespan, increased repair instances, corrosion, and premature capital expenditure.
