Almost a third of the energy consumed by commercial buildings is wasted due to poor resource management. Not only has research shown a 10% to 23% drop in productivity when the room’s temperature and air quality aren’t at ideal levels, but workers are usually less efficient in these “not-quite-right” environments as well.

Managing a building involves wearing multiple hats. You’re not only responsible for the occupants’ general comfort, but also the continued maintenance and optimization of the building’s internal systems. With so many (often) disparate systems in need of management, juggling them all successfully can become a challenge. This is where  HVAC automation software can help. 

As our buildings become increasingly reliant on automation services, cloud application security technologies, and other interconnected systems, finding a safe and secure way to manage it all has become nothing less than essential. 

There are many incentives to implementing your building with HVAC automation capabilities. Whether it’s energy-savings, futureproofing, integration with a BAS, or creating a comfortable building environment for your occupants, HVAC automation systems can help you manage your building better than ever before. 

Building owners and operators know full-well how essential it is to keep their sites running smoothly and securely. However, with multiple systems in need of supervision and various employees who need access to those systems, it can be difficult for a single building manager to delegate specific tasks to the right people efficiently.

BACnet controls rank among the most valuable and intuitive developments in the world of building automation. As the future of smart buildings continues to come at us, investing in automation and capitalizing on BACnet software is becoming more crucial than ever.

An HVAC system is like the backbone of your building and plugs into each department, floor, and individual room. It’s a building’s HVAC systems that make sure its occupants are comfortable in the space they’re in.

ODIN (Operator Display Integrated Network) is a building automation system with an integrated, simplified user interface that makes it easy to manage complex HVAC and energy processes in your building—or even in multiple buildings.

Modern building automation systems are taking advantage of sophisticated cloud computing to give HVAC engineers unparalleled new conveniences in access and control.  A cloud-based app can wirelessly connect to BACnet objects in your BAS from anywhere—at home, on the road, at any time, from any compatible device.

ODIN is a helpful central control hub for the BACnet objects in your HVAC system and other building facilities, even if they’re all from different makers.  However, it is more than just a centralized control dashboard—ODIN is an open book for the story of your building monitoring system.
