CoolSaver© Small Commercial Program
The CoolSaver© Program for small commercial customers will help you improve
the efficiency of your air conditioner or heat pump through a high-efficiency
A/C tune-up. Additionally, small commercial customers can receive cash
incentives in the form of instant savings coupons toward the replacement of A/C
and heat pump systems with high efficiency Energy Star® units.
What are the Benefits?
• Instant savings coupons toward the cost of an A/C tune-up or system
replacement.
• A CoolSaver© tune-up performed with precision digital instruments will
document the before-and-after condition of your HVAC system to verify the
increase in your system’s efficiency.
• Reduced cooling costs.
• Extending the life of your equipment.
• Better humidity control.
Entergy customers that participated in the Coolsaver Program in 2011 have
averaged a 25% increase in the cooling capacity of their air conditioner or heat
pump, and saved an average of $64 a year per unit on their Entergy bill.
Who is Eligible?
CoolSaver© A/C Tune-Up
• All Entergy Arkansas, Inc., small commercial customers with a peak demand of
less than 100kW and a central air conditioner up to 25 tons.

How Does the Program Work?
CoolSaver© A/C Tune-Up (Small Commercial)
Your participating contractor will conduct an evaluation using precision digital
tools to identify energy-saving improvements and determine if a high-performance
tune-up is necessary. The contractor will thoroughly clean condenser coils and,
if necessary, clean evaporator coils and blowers as well as adjust refrigerant
charge to manufacturer’s specification. Once the tune-up is completed, your
contractor will subtract the coupon amount from the total invoice.
