Faulty HVAC? You need big data

-

 



Are you a property owner looking for commercial HVAC solutions for your buildings? Anyone who owns commercial property knows that faulty HVAC systems can cause major disruptions and result inexpensive costs. Not only that, but faulty HVAC systems interrupt the people who are in the buildings, like employees in an office building, and can have a major impact on productivity and comfort. It’s very cold this time of year, which means it’s unacceptable to have continual problems with your heating systems. 

Additionally, commercial property owners are under pressure to use more energy-efficient technologies and reduce their energy consumption where possible. Older, less efficient HVAC systems can be wasteful, susceptible to breaking down from time to time, and often costly to run. 

What is Big Data, and how can it help?

Big Data uses analytics gathered from your commercial buildings’ HVAC systems and other electrical systems to find historical trends, analyze and identify cause-and-effect patterns, and make future predictions regarding HVAC performance. For example, if your heating systems have stopped working twice during the last three months, Big Data can help identify the reason and let you know when it may happen again, so you can act before something goes wrong. 

When it comes to cost efficiency and reducing energy consumption, Big Data can help in the following ways:

·         Identifies areas for energy savings in your building. For example, if there are no people on the 14th floor of your building until 11am, there’s no need for the heating or the lights to be turned on at 7am. If there’s an area of your building that’s usually empty except for a few days a week, Big Data will highlight this and you can adjust your HVAC systems as needed.

·         Helps you create the optimal environment for people in your building. We’ve all worked in an office building or been in a classroom where no one can agree on the temperature. It’s always too warm or too cold. Using analytics from Big Data, you can find and maintain an optimal indoor temperature for your buildings, eliminating the need to be constantly turning the thermostat up and down throughout the day.

·         Flags potential future issues and disruptions with your HVAC systems. Imagine knowing your heating system will stop working before it actually happens. HVAC systems can be complex with many different parts, coils, and vents, and using an analytics system can alert you to performance issues in specific parts of your HVAC system. You can have these parts inspected before they stop working entirely and prevent major disruptions and costly repair bills.

A proper heating system is essential for every commercial building, including factories and industrial sites, and having the correct  boiler system installed  and maintained by specialists is key to operational efficiency and minimal downtime. But all commercial Boiler service companies are not created equal. Levels of expertise, experience, access to specialized equipment, responsiveness, and integrity when considering repair or replace, are also critical. What to look for in your commercial boiler contractors  Commercial and industrial experience:  If you need an existing system maintained, repaired or upgraded, or a new system built from the ground up, residential boiler specialists simply won’t be able to help you – you need a partner who understands the demands of commercial heating systems. This is because scale isn’t the only factor at play – commercial systems have to work harder, have a role beyond just heating in many businesses, and often require advanced facilit

A good commercial HVAC contractor is more than a company that you call when things start going wrong in your building – they’re a partner who works with you to ensure a healthy, comfortable environment for employees, clients and tenants.

Looking for a  commercial HVAC contractor  to maintain, repair, design or install a new HVAC system for your building? Here’s some advice to help you find the right team for the job. Don’t Make These Mistakes When Hiring a Commercial Contractor  You don’t know what you need:  Of course, your HVAC contractor should be able to do a full assessment of your system and advise you on repairs or upgrades, but it’s important that you have an informed idea of the services you are seeking. Are you making energy-efficiency a priority? Is your system making strange noises and emitting unpleasant smells? What is your budget? You don’t get multiple quotes:  Unless you have industry experience, it’s very difficult to tell when a quote is reasonable or not, which makes getting multiple quotes essential.
