Improving energy efficiency in large offices

Most people spend almost half of their lives in commercial buildings and offices, so a safe, healthy and sustainable work environment is paramount.

If you work in or own large office spaces, you're probably wondering how to improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs and environmental impact, while creating a comfortable work space for tenants and employees?

When designing and arranging such places, we should not only think about the visual part, but also pay significant attention to the technical side, optimization of engineering systems and other details.

HVAC optimization

If the existing heating and cooling system in your office building is driving up your electricity bill, not heating and cooling properly, or making strange noises and odors, it may be time to consider an upgrade.

Install modern high-efficiency heating, cooling and ventilation (HVAC) systems. There are many options for this: boilers, heat pumps, electric and geothermal heating. You can also install smart HVAC systems.

Properly selected technology protects us both in hot summer and cold winter months.

Also note that when a building has effective thermal insulation, the load on the HVAC system and the amount of energy consumed are reduced.

Zoned systems: Divide the office into zones with separate temperature controls to reduce energy consumption in less busy areas.

Building Automation Systems (BAS) - Centralize control of lighting, HVAC and other systems to help you automatically schedule and monitor their operation in real time.

Use the right lighting

Incandescent, halogen, and fluorescent lights emit more heat than LEDs, creating an undesirable work environment. Compared to traditional lamps, light-emitting diodes (LED) 90% are more energy efficient, have a long life and a wide range of colors.

Minimize Natural Light – While it's nice to have sunlight in an office space, it can increase energy bills during the hot season.

Technical maintenance

Keep up with office HVAC system maintenance – including cleaning air ducts, changing filters, checking condenser and evaporator radiators, monitoring refrigerant levels, and more.
