There are multiple benefits of compressor electronics — some are more important to the contractor and wholesaler than others. In a recent survey by Emerson Climate Technologies of contractors and wholesalers to gauge their knowledge of compressor electronics and their perception of the technology, 38 percent saw the extension of system life as the primary benefit. Troubleshooting speed and accuracy was identified as most important by 28 percent of the respondents, while the ability to minimize damage when failure occurs received 16 percent.
Some contractors and wholesalers are concerned about how to sell the value of compressor electronics to homeowners, but about a quarter surveyed see no barriers to selling whatsoever.
