Low-Effort Measures That Save Energy

Building managers have a wide variety of energy efficiency measures at their disposal. These range in both cost and effort, from adjusting HVAC schedules to implementing advanced rooftop unit controls.

In this video, Slipstream's Xiaohui Zhou highlights a variety of low-effort measures in advanced building controls that can save lots of energy. These measures include: minimum VAV box damper flow reductions, shortened HVAC schedules, wider deadbands and night setbacks, and optimal starts.
