Building Analytics

Over the last several years HVAC technology has reached new pinnacles for providing the ultimate building management solutions. Building Analytics Applications are generally cloud-based solutions that link building automation systems and building analytics to provide:

  • Prioritized asset optimization recommendations.
  • Provide guidance with actionable information.
  • Deliver results that improve indoor air quality and conserve energy.
  • Track and report HVAC statistical analysis performance trends and diagnostics.
  • Suggest solutions for delivering optimal indoor air quality and performance.

A traditional building management system will generally share information about connected equipment but lacks the ability to deliver advanced analytics. Todays building analytics applications continuously captures and prioritizes data from all connected systems. The collected data allows an in-depth view of your entire system 24/7.

It also allows instant reporting of unexpected changes in energy consumption allowing your team to make adjustments that provide optimum air quality throughout your facility. Some current building analytic applications also provide machine learning capabilities allowing for performance reporting based upon historical patterns throughout the building and delivers solutions to maintenance teams based upon these historical performance analytics.

Making the decision to integrate building analytics into the mechanical equipment architecture can provide many long-term benefits. These includes:

  • The constant analysis of all system components will improve your systems efficiency. It will help optimize equipment schedules and identify faulty components and suggest energy-saving opportunities.
  • It will continuously monitor temperature, humidity, and air quality in real-time providing the best indoor air quality for employees.
  • Because the application continuously analyzes performance data it can detect potential device failures before they occur reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
  • With 24/7 analysis the application can identify inefficiencies throughout the system and provide adjustment suggestions for optimal performance. Equipment operating optimally will reduce overall operating costs.
  • Because everything is data-driven, maintenance operators can monitor the system and make adjustments based upon the historical performance further reducing operating costs.

A study conducted by the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy has reported that buildings using analytic system applications deliver 10-20% energy savings versus those without the application. Mechanical equipment installation, maintenance, and daily operating costs present a significant impact to annual operating budgets. The opportunity to manage these costs through advanced technology platforms continues to deliver innovative solutions to enhance the efficiency and performance of HVAC systems.
