Since the early 1600s when a Dutch engineer invented the world’s first regulator for keeping incubators heated at a constant temperature to keep eggs warm and hatch them into baby chicks, the automation of commercial buildings has come a long way. With the advent of DDC, the internet, multiple protocols, and the cloud, building controls advanced even further in its ability to improve building performance and occupant comfort. In this course, we explore how a Building Automation System (BAS) can improve building and HVAC system performance, increase longevity, reduce maintenance costs, save money, and provide sustainable solutions for owners and design professionals.
- Explain how a Building Automation System (BAS) can improve building and HVAC system performance, increase longevity, reduce maintenance costs, save money, and provide sustainable solutions for owners and design professionals.
- Identify the details that should be confirmed up-front to ensure the BAS operates properly, meets building owner expectations, and contributes positively to equipment safety, longevity, and reliability.
- Discuss the different controls systems protocols and the benefits of having a standard protocol in a BAS and third-party integration.
- Review examples of how BAS can increase occupant comfort and productivity, save energy, reduce peak loads, offer remote troubleshooting, and make building operations more effective.
