LeakSense Pro
LeakSense Pro helps HVAC technicians detect tiny refrigerant leaks that standard methods miss. By combining continuous pressure monitoring with a patented tracer algorithm, it pinpoints leaks even in hidden evaporator coils or buried lines, saving hours of guesswork.
Key Features
- Continuous pressure monitoring with smart alerts for pressure drop trends
- Tracer injection and detection mode for hard-to-find leaks
- Guided isolation workflow for multi-zone systems
- Report generation with leak location and repair recommendations
Target Users: HVAC field technicians specializing in commercial and residential service, especially those working with multi-zone ductless systems
Revenue Model: SaaS subscription with tiered plans (Basic: pressure monitoring; Pro: tracer mode and reports)

FridgeTech Mentor
New commercial refrigeration technician doesn't understand how walk-in refrigeration systems prevent liquid slugging without an accumulator, and needs guidance.
HVAC2MildTechnician
LoadBoost Diagnostic
Hard to diagnose low charge or TXV issues during HVAC tune-ups on mild temperature days due to zero load.
HVAC3MediumField Technician
CompuCool Diagnostics
An HVAC technician is unable to diagnose a persistent heat pump overcurrent/breaker trip issue despite following manufacturer service manuals, replacing breaker and inverter PCB based on tech support advice, and replacing the compressor, with all workarounds failing.
HVAC5CriticalField Technician
LoadCalc Pro
Homeowners are adding zones and square footage to existing HVAC systems without proper load calculation, leading to undersized equipment that will fail during peak seasons.
HVAC4HighHVAC Technician
CompressorCheck Pro
When diagnosing a low refrigerant charge in an HVAC system, it's unclear whether the compressor has been damaged from pulling in air, and there is no established protocol to decide if leak repair is worth attempting before confirming compressor viability.
HVAC3MediumField Technician
CoilCheck Pro
HVAC technician needs to diagnose a refrigerant coil leak in a Trane unit without tearing it open, looking for common failure patterns and symptoms.
HVAC3MediumField Technician
LeakSniffer Pro
Finding refrigerant leaks on multi-zone ductless HVAC systems is extremely difficult and time-consuming when visual, bubble, and sniff methods fail.
HVAC4HighField Technician
CoilAlert
HVAC technicians lack a clear indication when the coil door is open and struggle to diagnose low suction pressure during tune-ups.
HVAC3MediumField Technician
EvacVue Gauge Sync
Different micron readings on liquid and suction sides during vacuum decay, causing uncertainty about proper system evacuation.
HVAC3MediumTechnician
StartSmart Advisor
HVAC technicians are uncertain when to use a hard start vs soft start for compressors, lacking clear guidelines.
HVAC2MildTechnician
HVAC Detective Pro
Diagnosing intermittent TXV failure and hard-to-locate refrigerant leaks in rooftop and pancake units without proper access.
HVAC3MediumField Technician
A2L Diagnostic Toolbox
HVAC technicians lack a standardized diagnostic tool for A2L sensor and mitigation board issues, leading to trial-and-error troubleshooting and delays.
HVAC3MediumHVAC Technician
LeakSnap Pro
Leak detection on A/C systems is unreliable; standard methods (pressure test with nitrogen, soap bubbles, electronic sniffer) miss small leaks that only show under lower pressure when the system is running.
HVAC4HighHVAC Technician
ChillCalc Pro
Wireless HVAC pressure/temperature probes have unreliable connectivity and lack basic refrigerant calculations like superheat and subcool.
HVAC3MediumHVAC Technician
FaultFinder HVAC
Intermittent short in HVAC system that blows fuses unpredictably, with no clear cause found after multiple part replacements over months.
