ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed by the present invention a device for increasing the efficiency of the condenser unit of an air conditioner which consists of a predetermined length of copper tubing having perforations punched into it at regular intervals of approximately two inches, and which is covered by a sleeve made up of a woven textile material which is of the length equal to that length of tubing having perforations punched into it. The perforated length of tubing, ensheathed in the sleeve of woven textile material is laid atop the fins, of a condenser unit, which have been bent to accommodate this portion of the device resting on top of the condenser unit. When ambient atmospheric temperature rises above a certain temperature a thermostat causes a valve to allow water to flow into the device, when it flows out of the perforations in the copper tubing and is diffused by the wicking material along the length of the device until the wicking material is saturated. Upon saturation, water flows down the cooling fins and the cooling coils of the condenser increasing the efficiency of heat loss from the coolant in the condenser's coils both by evaporative and direct heat transfer processes.
