İmbat Rooftop Units Deliver Up to 29% Energy Savings and Lower HVAC Investment Costs
İmbat continues to support the financial sustainability of investors through its packaged Rooftop solutions designed to minimize operational costs associated with traditional systems. According to engineering analyses, İmbat Rooftop Units provide project-based advantages of up to 15% in initial investment costs (CAPEX) compared to conventional Chiller and Air Handling Unit (AHU) combinations, while also delivering comprehensive energy savings of 29% in operational expenses (OPEX).
In HVAC projects, equipment procurement costs represent only the initial phase of the total investment. The actual economic impact becomes evident once the system enters the operational stage. With 35 years of engineering expertise, İmbat, a pioneer in the industry, is introducing a new era of “Lower CAPEX, Even Lower OPEX” for commercial buildings and industrial facilities through packaged solutions that eliminate the high energy consumption traditionally required for water circulation within piping systems.
Eliminating Pump Costs: Removing the Additional Burden of Water Circulation and Piping
In conventional HVAC architectures using Air Handling Unit (AHU) and Chiller combinations, circulation pumps must operate continuously to move water through piping networks and maintain thermal transfer processes. This circulation alone creates additional energy consumption averaging approximately 7.5 kW per hour.
For a medium-scale commercial project—using a reference scenario of 100,000 m³/h airflow capacity and 650 kW cooling capacity—this results in substantial increases in annual energy expenses.
İmbat Rooftop systems eliminate this operational burden entirely through their compact design that requires neither water circulation nor external piping systems, reducing pump-related energy consumption to zero (0 kW).
A Clear 29% Reduction in Total Energy Expenses
The simplified, water-free architecture and optimized power management of İmbat Rooftop Units reduce hourly cooling power requirements from approximately 199 kW to 130 kW.
When annual operating durations for both cooling and heating modes are evaluated, energy losses typically associated with traditional systems are minimized, resulting in a verified 29% reduction in total energy expenses.
This certified efficiency creates financial advantages worth tens of thousands of Euros annually for facility management operations.
Six Times Return on Initial Investment Savings Within One Year
The engineering data highlights the long-term financial impact of selecting the right HVAC equipment. In this project scenario, İmbat Rooftop systems provide an 11% CAPEX advantage during procurement and installation by eliminating the need for machine rooms, heavy piping infrastructure, and external automation panels.
Perhaps the most striking result is that operational savings (OPEX) achieved after only one year of active operation become six times greater than the savings generated during the equipment procurement process.
This once again demonstrates that sustainability and energy efficiency are not only environmental priorities but also profitable investment strategies for businesses.
İmbat continues to demonstrate that true financial efficiency in HVAC systems is achieved not only during the purchasing phase but throughout the entire lifecycle of system operation, creating measurable differences in both investment and operating costs.
