Current vehicular HVAC technology heats and cools the thermal loads of the surrounding structures such as the headliner, windows, flooring, and seat backs in addition to the occupants. These systems consume between 3,500-5,000 W. To reduce this load heating or cooling can be plumbed directly into the seats.
