Sonoma Cool (formerly PAX Streamline)

Sonoma Cool is a cleantech firm developing products that improve the energy efficiency and overall effectiveness of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems.  The firm’s initial offering, the Aqueous line of liquid desiccant air conditioners, leverages nature's evaporation strategies to reduce the humidity load managed by the cooling system.  This, in turn, improves the system’s performance and significantly lowers energy costs—often by 20% (or more)—while maintaining the building’s environmental comfort zone. 

Designed for commercial buildings such as supermarkets, hospitals, shopping malls, movie theatres, office buildings, and industrial plants, Sonoma Cool’s cooling solution reduces a building's energy footprint and qualifies for LEED points.
