Case Study: Six-Figure Energy Savings, Unlocked by Real-Time Visibility

Industry

Office

Region

Northeast

Portfolio

120K sq ft commercial office

Challenge

  • +2000 individually controlled 1-10 ton capacity R-22 water-source heat pumps
  • ~40 tenant comfort complaints per month due to poor temperature control
  • +20 equipment failures or replacements per month
  • No building management system, rising energy costs and budget pressure

HVAC Copilot Initial Findings

  • 100% of monitored equipment ran incompatible operating modes (i.e. cooling on cold day, heating on hot days, simultaneously heating and cooling in the same room)
  • 65% of equipment had a refrigerant leak
  • 30% of equipment was short-cycling
  • Preventative maintenance alert prevented +$1K in failures and replacement parts
