FUN FACT FRIDAY: According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), chillers can combine to use approximately 20% of the total electric power generated in North America. Moreover, the DOE estimates that chillers can expend up to 30% in additional energy usage due to various operational inefficiencies.
Chillers are an important component of any large commercial or industrial HVAC system, being a part of various facilities including hotels, hospitals, manufacturing plants, and more. Total Comfort Solutions aims to solve chiller inefficiency problems one building at a time. As a part of a building performance analysis, many questions become clear.
By addressing current preventative maintenance schedules (…or the lack there of), analyzing 13 months of past energy usage, and assessing all of the building’s environmental mechanical systems, improvements can be made. Significant savings can often be found through customized, co-authored solutions.
