BAM™ technology makes 13 SEER a business opportunity

Position your company for profit-building 13 SEER business.

Only 4 percent of compressor unit sales are currently rated 13 SEER or higher. Beginning in 2006, all 7 million residential units sold annually will be 13 SEER. AlumiCool™ can help you profit from that move.

Conventional condensers mean high costs for you and for your customers

Meeting the 13 SEER rating requirement calls for more efficient high-end units. But conventional copper and aluminum tube-in-fin (TIF) solutions for high-efficiency condenser units are expensive and complex, requiring double coils and/ or complex electronic controls. This can drive up your costs and cause problems for installers and maintenance personnel.

AlumiCool™ technology delivers better 13 SEER solutions

There is a lower-cost path to 13 SEER ratings without complicated electronic controls: high-efficiency Brazed Aluminum Microchannel (BAM™) technology from AlumiCool™.


BAM™ condenser designs have years of proven performance – and reliability – in automotive applications. Now they’re available for residential applications.

AlumiCool™ makes higher efficiency a business opportunity

AlumiCool™ BAM™ technology presents a unique opportunity to OEMs who move quickly to increase their share in this $8 billion market. Using BAM™, we can help you move quickly to increase the efficiency of your existing unit designs, while improving reliability and lowering your cost relative to TIF coils.

AlumiCool™ support allows a two-stage move to BAM™ technology

Adopt AlumiCool’s BAM™ technology to your product line in stages. First, use high-efficiency BAM™ coils as a direct replacement for TIF coils in your existing designs. We can produce coils from our standard designs in a variety of dimensions to fit your tonnage requirements.


Second, with some additional engineering, you can get even greater system efficiency from BAM™ condensers making other components smaller and less expensive. AlumiCool™ engineering support is available to help. AlumiCool™ technical consulting can help you develop specifications for sizing, capacity, efficiency and compatibility with your existing units.
