This paper describes an evaluation of a commercially available condenser spray device on the air conditioner of a typical residence . The testing was conducted through two summers of operation. The results indicated that a spray tends to decouple the electrical consumption and demand from ambient air temperature . Seasonal savings were not as great as anticipated, only about $3.45. However, the summer was cooler than normal and the family occupying the house conducted extreme energy conservation practices which tended to reduce the observed savings. The reduction in average daily demand was 8.7% and it was estimated that the peak demand was reduced by 16%.
