Building Automation Maintenance

Too often, the systems and equipment governed by your building controls go unnoticed until something major happens that affects daily operations.

Ignoring the maintenance of your facility’s building automation system can lead to decreased efficiency, excessive energy use, and, potentially, complete system failure. Our team of building controls professionals offers comprehensive building automation maintenance services, helping keep all your facility’s integrated systems operating smoothly and efficiently.

Benefits of Regular Building Automation Maintenance

Investing in your building automation system’s productivity and efficiency with routine maintenance can pay off in several ways:

  • Helps ensure optimum equipment performance by reviewing setpoints, inspecting sensors and other components for functionality, reviewing performance reports, and replacing worn parts.

  • Detects issues when they are small and repairs are less expensive and create less downtime, providing long-term savings on emergency repairs.

  • Prolongs the useful life of your building automation system and building controls equipment, in turn protecting assets such as HVAC and electrical equipment, increasing ROI on system equipment, components, and services.

  •  Increases energy efficiency by optimizing performance and reducing unnecessary equipment run-time.

  • Improves occupant comfort by helping ensure systems are collecting accurate data and that programmed sequences are occurring as intended.

Maintenance Solutions for Complex Building Controls Issues

When a building automation system does not receive proper maintenance, it can have difficulty controlling occupant comfort settings, use too much energy, or experience intermittent power failures, incorrect sensor readings, or even system crashes.

A building automation maintenance plan addresses several of these potential issues by providing:

  • Routine inspection, repair, and calibration of building automation system components, including:
    • Sensors
    • Transmitters
    • Relays
    • Field devices
    • Power supplies
    • Actuators
    • Valves
    • Dampers
  • Software updates and backups
  • System schedule review
  • Review of equipment efficiency reports

 

Without these building automation maintenance services, systems risk becoming outdated and may experience communication issues, leading to potential downtime.
