About Air Conditioner Additives: How Cerma Blue Ice Works
Share
Air conditioning and refrigeration systems are essential for maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures, but they can be expensive to operate and maintain. That's where Cerma Blue Ice comes in. This innovative additive takes a 4-prong approach to increase system efficiency and reduce costs.
Efficiency in an A/C or Refrigeration system is dependent on the heat transfer efficiency (latent heat absorption). The faster a system can deliver colder air equates directly to increased heat transfer efficiency. The areas in which Cerma Blue Ice increases system efficiency are:
-
Removes Oil Fouling: Cerma Blue Ice removes oil fouling, which occurs when oil circulating throughout the system forms a thin, insulating layer on the walls of the evaporator and compressor pipes, thereby reducing heat transfer. With Cerma Blue Ice, heat transfer in evaporator and compressor pipes is improved by over 70%, increasing the system’s cooling capacity. As an additional benefit, the oil removed from the inner tubing is returned to the system in its original state, enhancing lubrication.
-
Removes Moisture: Water freezes as it passes from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side, significantly reducing the heat transfer rate. Cerma Blue Ice removes the moisture (water) from the system and allows the refrigerant to evaporate at a lower temperature, which lowers vent air temperature. The removal of the moisture, the increased rate of cooling, and the colder vent air, all combine to enable the system to do more cooling faster and work less.
-
Increases Lubrication: Proper lubrication is continuously necessary for the compressor to run at peak efficiency. Cerma Blue Ice delivers greater lubricity to the compressor oil, which allows the compressor to run cooler thereby increasing the life of the compressor. The increased lubricity also helps lower maintenance costs and extend the life of the compressor.

World's Only Self-Cleaning Catalyst: The proprietary Cerma Blue Ice formulation is made up of nano molecules that continuously move the refrigerant oil through the system and constantly clean the coils to produce to create a self-cleaning system without oil fouling, without moisture, and with maximum lubrication efficiency.
