The Best Ways To Waste Energy - Air Conditioning (HVAC)

The Best Ways To Waste Energy - Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Examples of the top ways to waste energy - Air Conditioning (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) or HVAC for short.

As a business you may wonder where the high costs are on utility bills for heating and cooling. HVAC systems exist in many city office blocks and manufacturing premises like factories. Energy assessments by surveyors reveal that in most case studies the air conditioning of the building is poorly managed.

Energy management is important in reducing gas and electricity bills, as well as carbon emissions. Air conditioning plant can be costly to run as such systems operate all year round providing heating in winter and cooling in summer.

HVAC plant can consume large quantities of energy
Take control of air conditioning systems by adopting a building management system (BMS) which controls where and when you need heating and cooling. Zone control allows flexibility for working environments and saves you money on energy costs.
For existing HVAC systems it is essential that a survey is conducted to identify plant and machinery that is working out of limits, for example, controls that are poorly calibrated, ductwork that is clogged causing air resistance, coolant leaks, blocked louvres and grilles on intake and exhaust vents.

Tips to Improve Performance

Poor maintenance is often a cause of poor performance in most installations, regular maintenance brings performance enhancements and with it a reduction in energy usage. Fully automated computerised energy management systems can provide better control of the process.

Arrange an Inspection

Get a price and a quote for a survey for Air Conditioning Inspection, the report will provide detailed information on whats right and whats wrong with your HVAC installation and ways to improve its performance.

Energy Assessments

Approved registered assessors can inspect air conditioning plant and offer advice on improving energy efficiency.
