How to set up a building automation control system in an Historic Building

Product Recommendations

Wireless Room Controller
Integrates with existing wiring to provide fixture zoning. Allows wireless integration with sensors and switches.
Wireless Temperature Sensors
These self-powered sensors can be used in combination to create an average temperature reading of key customer areas to ensure more efficient HVAC activation.
Wireless Thermostat
Centrally controlled and locally integrated with occupancy sensors. Master schedules can be pushed facility-wide or to target thermostats.
Wireless Switches
Self-powered switches that install in seconds. Easily commissioned to support dimming and preset light levels.
Wireless Sensors
Self-powered sensors that install in seconds, supporting daylight harvesting and thermostat temperature reset.
Fan Coil Control Bridge
Allows the thermostat to leverage wireless remote sensor(s), in addition to averaging across multiple sensors.

Occupancy / Vacancy Sensing
Turn lights on when occupants are in a space and off when they vacate the space. Alternate Functionality: Partial-on and manual-on modes are supported for additional savings and for more stringent local codes.
High-End Trim / Institutional Tuning
Set the maximum light level based on customer requirements in each space to prevent overlighting.
Local Dimming Control
Permit occupants to lower the light level below the high-end trim for comfort and additional savings.
Daylight Harvesting
Dim indoor and outdoor lighting when daylight is available. Multiple zones are supported where required by code.
HVAC Control
Manage smart thermostats and sensors centrally to optimize comfort and energy savings via calendar and occupancy based setbacks.
Plug Load Control
Manage control of select plug loads for demand management and the elimination of phantom loads.
Automatic Scheduling & Timeclock
Automatically dim or shut off lighting based on centrally managed schedules.
Demand Management
Manage lighting and HVAC electrical loads to limit ratchet charges and peak demand pricing periods.
