Engineering the oil-free future
Oil-free magnetic levitation chillers are gaining ground in Australian HVAC design. Aureacor is positioning its technology to meet NCC 2025 requirements and NABERS efficiency benchmarks.
How will NCC 2025 efficiency rules change chiller selection for HVAC contractors?
HVAC technicians and building services engineers face new efficiency standards under NCC 2025. Chiller selection and system design decisions may need to change to stay compliant.
Key takeaways
- Oil-free magnetic levitation chillers are emerging as a preferred option for NCC 2025 compliance.
- Aureacor is developing local design authority to support Australian HVAC projects.
- NABERS alignment is driving demand for higher-efficiency chiller technology on commercial builds.
- A global partnership is backing Aureacor's push into the Australian market.
