Helix Earth Technologies
Revolutionizing liquid-gas chemistry, born from our work on NASA space missions. By accelerating chemical reactions 1000x, we can achieve results never imagined across industries including HVAC, Carbon Capture, and Industrial applications. By 2050, CO2 emissions from air conditioning power use will reach nearly 10% of the global output - more than the entire aviation industry or passenger vehicles. We're starting with breakthrough HVAC retrofit devices that bring unmatched efficiency and energy savings to existing air conditioning units (RTU, DOAS). By removing moisture from outside air before entering the main system, our devices can drop energy consumption by 50% or more. This is a game changer for those paying utilities on commercial properties and buying equipment. Adding Helix products will be a good choice for both retrofits and replacement situations. With many incentives and tax credits available, the Helix products may cost $0 out-of-pocket making our devices an easy and obvious addition to rooftop HVAC systems.
