HVAC INDUSTRY NEWS


The improved version of BuildingAdvice features an enhanced software interface to the U.S. EPA’s ENERGY STAR® energy performance rating system, so commercial building owners pursuing LEED® or ENERGY STAR certification can see both a projection of their ENERGY STAR rating based on the recommended energy savings from the report in addition to their current rating. The upgrade also enables contractors to develop a customizable presentation of the projected savings and ROI from proposed energy conservation measures. Reports on the savings of electricity/fuel, dollar savings and payback period can be broken out individually or bundled together and presented as a single proposal. The ability to customize reports makes it easier to conform to utility requirements for technical justification for rebate programs.

As more commercial building owners and contractors recognize the importance of energy efficiency programs in reducing overall costs as well as the positive impact they can make on the environment, technology like BuildingAdvice will become an important tool for meeting energy and sustainability goals.
