Energy-efficiency interventions are crucial for sustainable building operations. This study evaluates the effectiveness of routine HVAC cleaning on energy consumption and supply airflow across non-residential buildings in four climate zones. Cleaned HVAC systems demonstrated significant energy savings (41–60%) and increased supply airflow (10–46%) compared to uncleaned systems.

Abstract

Energy-efficiency interventions are crucial for sustainable building operations. This study evaluates the effectiveness of routine HVAC cleaning on energy consumption and supply airflow across non-residential buildings in four climate zones. Cleaned HVAC systems demonstrated significant energy savings (41–60%) and increased supply airflow (10–46%) compared to uncleaned systems. The findings support routine HVAC cleaning as a cost-effective strategy for improving both energy performance and indoor air quality.
