  • Ice Cold (heat and cooling) device experience ???

    Talked with SolarTyme (AAPCO) representative concerning solar panel installation (to produce electricity). He pointed out advantages of adding Ice Cold to our Heat/AC units.

    In all, we will get;
    Two IceCold units installed.
    12 solar panels providing electricity when the sun shines.
    Attic encased with 2000sf of foil/insulation (SolarEclipse).
    Additional ceiling insulation blown in to bring it up to R38.
    Pulldown stairs gets a cover installed.
    The electric water heater gets an insulated cover.
    Under-house (crawl space) ductwork gets additional insulation.
    Price $35,000.

    Here is a link for IceCold:

    I can understand the theory, but wonder about unit longevity and detrimental affects to our 14 yr old systems. We have a 3 ton with gas pack and then a 2 ton heat-pump.

    Due to the age of our units, I wonder if replacement might be a smarter way of going. The theory of IceCold, I would think, would be built into modern heat/AC systems.

    My questions: Does IceCold actually pay for itself? Is this a good thing?
