Solid Start• The Solid Start family began developing and

manufacturing maintenance chemicals in 1976 for:– Automotive– Racing– Heavy industry

Solid Start - continued

• Solid Start family products have been sold worldwide– In more than

100 countries

Now Solid Start Introduces• Cold-Plus® A/C & Refrigeration Treatment

– Unique patent-pending two-stage technology

Cold-Plus® Benefits1. Reduces friction with PTFE

• Called “the slickest substance known to man”

– Like “wet ice on wet ice”• Chemically inert

– Does not react with other chemicals

Cold-Plus® Benefits – continued2. Surfactants & detergents remove oil fouling

– ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers) says that …

• Due to oil fouling– First year; up to 7% efficiency loss– Second year; up to 5% loss– Following years; 2% lost per year – Loss peaks at between 20 - 30%.

Cold-Plus® Benefits – continued

• First oil fouling is removed

• Then nanopolymers help prevent the return of oil fouling

Photos of inside A/C tubes cut in half demonstrate oil fouling removal

Cold-Plus® Benefits – continued 3. Speeds thermodynamics

– Heat transfer - A/C cooling phase– Cold transfer - heat pump phase

• How?– Less oil fouling improves heat & cold transfer– Nanopolymers reduce surface tension and

improve refrigerant flow

4. Improves pool boiling (liquid turning to gas)

• How?– Polymers act as a nuclei

approximately 20% fasterSee Cold-Plus video for live demonstration

Cold-Plus® Benefits – continued

• Everyday life example of the improved heat transfer that speeds pool boiling:o Many steam irons recommend using tap water

vs. distilled water*. Particles in tap water improve heat transfer efficiency.* A Consumer Reports study of 46 steam irons

concluded that using distilled water risks ruining your iron and rendering your warranty useless.

5. Longer equipment life– PTFE treatment reduces friction

and can extend compressor life

PTFE, like “wet ice on wet ice”

6. Reduced costs for utilities, power & fuel

7. Reduced costs for maintenance and repair

Cold-Plus® vs. the Competition• Cold-Plus® provides unique “second stage”

benefits beyond the competition– Oil fouling is removed and replaced with permanently

bonded slippery PTFE to prevent oil fouling’s return and increase refrigerant flow.

– Other inert nano-sized polymer particles circulate with refrigerant acting as a source of enhanced pool boiling, thus speeding thermodynamics and removing more heat.

Application Longevity• Each Cold-Plus®

application lasts the life of the system

• ROI (Return on Investment) is assured

Test DocumentationTest documents demonstrate:

– Removed oil fouling removal – Improved thermal transfer– Reduced costs for utilities / power / fuel– Reduced emissions & environmental impact– Increased lubricity – Reduced compressor run timeContinued – next slide

– Reduced start-up amp draw– Improved pool boiling– Longer Unit Life– Reduced Maintenance Costs– Application Longevity– ROI (Return on Investment)

Dr. Peter Jenkins• “One of the main advantages

of the Cold-Plus® technology is its ability to provide a longer lasting protection than any other product on the market.”
