For over 100 years, the way we cool buildings hasn’t changed much, until now. Mojave produces novel liquid desiccant systems targeting energy efficiency and reducing the climate impact of HVAC. We are setting out to change the world one A/C unit at a time!
Mojave significantly lowers financial and climate expenses, while improving comfort and air quality, without compromising product reliability:
Reduce energy draw by 40-60% compared to today’s legacy air conditioners. Future products will offer savings of 80% or more
Able to abate 100 million tons CO2e with an eye to 1 billion tons in the future.
Deliver fresh outside air into buildings and allow independent control of humidity and temperature to maximize comfort.
Proven to operate reliably through tens of thousands of hours of equipment testing.
Priced in line with other HVAC hardware and providing greater energy savings over the life of the equipment, saving tens of thousands of dollars

Air conditioning is responsible for the equivalent of 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide released annually, or 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The problem is expected to worsen as consumers in more countries rapidly install many more air conditioners. Mojave air conditioning units are able to abate 100 million tons CO2e with an eye to a billion tons in the future.
Air conditioning and electric fans account for about a fifth of the total electricity used in buildings around the world – or 10% of all global electricity consumption today. Mojave air conditioning units reduce energy draw by 40-60% compared to today’s legacy air conditioners. Future products will offer savings of 80% or more.
Air quality can have significant impacts on our cognitive function, including ability to focus, response times, and productivity, according to recent research conducted at the Harvard. In fact, the importance of indoor air quality is becoming more broadly recognized. Mojave units deliver fresh outside air into buildings and allow independent control of humidity and temperature to maximize comfort.
The technology underlying our platform is a third-generation liquid desiccant dehumidification system. We have learned the lessons of the past and have designed our product for reliability and maintenance that matches or exceeds today’s equipment. We’ve proven this through tens of thousands of hours of equipment testing.
In today’s economy, prices and costs are a top concern. Our units are designed to be priced in line with current legacy HVAC hardware. More importantly, energy savings reduce operating expenses such that over the life of the equipment you will save tens of thousands of dollars.
It’s all about achieving double bottom line value. Mojave delivers significantly lower financial and climate expenses, as well as improved comfort, without any compromise on quality, reliability or capital expense.
