About

Funpressor is specializing in a novel refrigeration cycle that incorporates an innovative compressor to enhance efficiency in HVAC&R systems. By addressing the inherent energy inefficiencies of conventional vapor compression cycles, Funpressor’s patented technology significantly increases system efficiency, with the potential to double the coefficient of performance (COP) compared to standard systems. Initially designed for commercial refrigeration and HVAC applications, the system serves as a form, fit, and function (FFF) replacement for existing units, allowing for seamless industry adoption. It operates with low-GWP natural refrigerants, aligning with global sustainability goals without requiring changes to current manufacturing processes, installation methods, or technician certifications. The expected unit cost remains comparable to conventional systems, while operational costs are projected to decrease by over 50%. Additionally, the Funpressor cycle enables advanced energy management, including integrated pressure-based energy storage for peak load shifting, benefiting commercial users facing load-based tariffs. Beyond commercial refrigeration, its applications extend to food supply chain refrigeration, battery cooling in electric vehicles, and high-efficiency heat pumps for industrial processes. By reshaping energy consumption patterns in HVAC&R—an industry responsible for 50% of global final energy use—Funpressor contributes to global decarbonization efforts and the transition toward a more sustainable future.
