I manage a large office building with over 100 employees, and the majority of them have their own office.
The building is in a neighborhood with a warmer climate, so I genuinely love to ensure that the Heating and A/C proposal is in full working order.
Unfortunately, having so many employees means that there are differences in what they would like the temperature control to be set at, some employees prefer to have their office at a cooler temperature. Others prefer to have their office at a warmer temperature. After several failed attempts to find a temperature that would satisfy the majority of people, I decided to install smart temperature controls with zone control. Smart temperature controls are Wi-Fi enabled and may be managed via an app on a PC or computer. Zone control is accomplished by installing valves within the HVAC ducts to control the flow of air throughout the building, allowing separate offices to be set at various hot and cold temperatures! Programming the smart temperature controls is easy, and my staff required little training to understand how to operate them. Because of the smart temperature controls with zone control, each employee may have their workplace adjusted to the temperature that is most comfortable for them. At first, I thought that providing employees control over the temperature control would increase the cost of energy bills. Smart temperature controls are extremely energy efficient and have actually lowered the amount of money spent on energy bills each month.
