After participating in this course, you will be able to:

• Understand building automation system components and how they operate together
• Apply simple energy saving control strategies that will save energy
• Improve the operating efficiency of automation systems
• Maintain the performance of automation systems

Description:
A building automation system is the one piece of equipment and tool that will have the largest impact on a building’s energy use, indoor air quality and maintenance costs. The majority of automation systems are used marginally in terms of their potential, and as a result a key resource to decrease energy use and reduce liability stands idle. Education, documentation, and regular reviews have been shown to maximize building automation system performance. Facility managers and engineers who don’t fully understand these systems run the obvious risk of increasing liability for themselves as well as employer/client costs.

This course provides the opportunity to understand and maximize the performance of building automation systems.
