Phase Sight AI puts a 24/7 diagnostic technician inside every HVAC system. Irvin (the hardware) catches developing failures weeks before they break. The AI platform tells your maintenance team exactly what to fix, where, and when. Property owners stop dealing with emergencies. Contractors stop guessing on the truck.
Annualized total cost of ownership per HVAC unit. Installs, maintenance, emergency repairs, electricity, the collateral damage that comes with all of it. Buy 3 units. Buy 2. Or buy 1.
vs. standard quarterly maintenance
Includes the line-by-line math for every scenario, every assumption, and every source cited.
Property managers and HVAC contractors share the same problem. Failures develop silently, get caught at 2am, and cost 3 to 5 times more to fix than they would have on a Tuesday morning maintenance visit.
Standard commercial HVAC maintenance budget. Most operators discover their true spend only after the emergencies start.
Emergency HVAC repair costs 3 to 5 times more than the same fix done on a scheduled maintenance visit.
HVAC drives more energy consumption than every other building system combined. Degraded equipment quietly leaks 8 to 22 percent of that.
A no-cool emergency on a Friday night costs roughly triple what the same diagnosis would have cost on a scheduled visit.
Drain backup is the leading preventable cause of HVAC-related insurance claims in commercial real estate.
What a 100,000 square foot office tower running aging rooftop units can burn through in reactive HVAC repairs alone, in a single year.
Phase Sight AI = hardware that watches every HVAC system 24/7, paired with software that tells your team exactly what to fix and when. Together they turn HVAC from a reactive cost center into a planned operating budget item.
24/7 HVAC diagnostic device
Two devices clip onto the outdoor condenser and indoor air handler of any split system. They read every signal an HVAC tech would clamp on for, continuously, instead of once per service visit.
Intelligent maintenance dispatch
AI that watches Irvin's data stream across your entire portfolio. When something starts to drift, it tells your team what's wrong, where, what part to bring, and when to dispatch the truck.
Two devices clip onto each HVAC system. Certified HVAC technicians do the install during a routine maintenance visit. No special truck rolls, no tenant access window.
Every minute, Irvin reads what an HVAC tech would check on a diagnostic call: refrigerant pressure, line temperatures, current draw, airflow, drain status. The AI platform watches every reading across every system you manage.
When something starts to drift, the platform writes a work order: which unit, which part, why, and how urgent. Your tech rolls up pre-diagnosed and pre-stocked, before the tenant ever picks up the phone.
Real industry data on what shifts when properties and contractors deploy predictive HVAC monitoring.
Most catastrophic failures start as small drift weeks before the failure. Irvin catches the drift. The platform schedules the fix on a Tuesday.
Predictive maintenance shifts the entire failure curve left. Issues get caught at the developing-issue stage, not the no-cool emergency stage.
Right-time interventions replace wasted preventive visits AND prevent emergency premiums. Net spend drops even with the cost of monitoring.
Catching capacitor drift, charge anomalies, and electrical degradation before they cascade is what determines whether your compressor lasts ten years or eighteen.
Commercial property operators consistently report payback inside the second year. Savings come from eliminated emergencies, reduced energy waste, extended asset life, and avoided tenant disputes.
Predictive maintenance data is now insurer-recognized risk-reduction evidence. A 26-story Manhattan tower negotiated a $300,000 per year premium reduction after deploying connected monitoring.
Pre-diagnosed truck rolls, data trails that justify big-ticket repairs, and recurring revenue from monitored service contracts. First-time fix rate climbs from 58 percent to 87 percent.
