Current energy consumption trends in commercial buildings highlight the urgent need for improved energy efficiency. Inefficient HVAC systems not only drive up operational costs but also contribute significantly to environmental degradation through higher CO2 emissions. Through developing a service and maintenance strategy, using digital insights to review the existing equipment and systems, giving a baseline on the energy consumption and what system improvements could be made, businesses and building owners can expect to see improvements in energy efficiency, enhance indoor air quality, and reduce both costs and carbon footprints.
