Reasons to say No

You can't say no !

We interviewed building owners, chief engineers, and facility managers, who originally had some concerns, but now are very excited and are waiting for the demo kits. Their biggest concern was that there may not be enough money in the budget to spend on anything right now. When they heard that they could lease the our wireless system, and receive a positive cash flow while reaping the monitoring benefits, they were nodding their heads up and down and saying Yes

The building owners were not totally familiar with the energy-saving benefits of the existing DDC zone control systems. The VAV(DDC) control module has an established energy-saving record since the mid-80s. The product incorporates the same energy-saving attributes as the VAV(DDC) control modules. The VAV(DDC) module upgrade consists of replacing all the pneumatic controls and has an average payback of 3 to 5 years. This definitely enhances the ROI. Once they realized that the energy savings was an established industry standard, they said Yes.

Chief engineers seem to be very cautious about new technologies and the wireless industry. When they learned that they could try the demo kit for 30 days with a money back guarantee they said Yes.

A few facilities indicated that they were budgeted and ready to replace the pneumatic system with the state-of-the-art DDC control system. This potential customer already realized the energy-saving features of DDC zone controls. The proposed plan is to upgrade to a state-of-the-art DDC system and pay for the upgrades with energy savings and purge out the pneumatic system. 

The five-year energy savings upgrade opportunity estimated an average building with 100 zones. Within the first year the retrofit product will be installed throughout the facility. Over the second year 25 all electric DDC zones can be installed from the previous year’s energy savings. The savings from year two will allow 25 + more installations. After five years you have a complete all electric DDC system completed and paid for from the energy savings.  Yes

One of the major problems with old pneumatic systems is that they are sometimes contaminated with moisture and oil. When the product is installed each zone throughout the system will be purged of oil and moisture, allowing it to operate efficiently while your new zone control system is saving money. Yes

The retrofit is compatible to upgrade module that allows you to switch from pneumatic to an all electric state-of-the-art DDC system. An investment that will always be in your ceiling.Yes

Many building owners have complained about the temperature variations in their existing pneumatic system. However, it has been found the thermostats could actually control within a + or -1/2 degree Fahrenheit, if the system installations were done correctly. The monitoring capabilities will allow for excellent diagnostics providing possible remedy to the system problems. Yes

If a building is not totally occupied and finances don’t allow the installation, the retrofit can really help these situations. The new product utilizes an old established sequence of operation called: “Turn It Off”! There is no need to air-condition the empty area of the facility. This enhances the payback and cash flow after the system is leased. Yes

It's important that we all step up to the plate and do something to help to reduce our power consumption and preserve a cleaner, more efficient world for our children and grandchildren.Yes
