Preventative Maintenance to Ensure Energy Savings
The entire building HVAC system was running 365/24/7 causing higher than normal electric bills when compared to similar building use and size.
The Challenge
The entire building HVAC system was running 365/24/7 causing higher than normal electric bills when compared to similar building use and size.
The Solution
Star Service at no additional cost or risk, as the savings were guaranteed to LSU Health Foundation, programmed daily, weekly, and yearly schedules along with night temperature and humidity setbacks that would maintain current level of comfort while lowering energy use. These new control measures will continue saving energy and money, prolonging equipment life, and reducing noise generation long into the future with simple routine maintenance and care.
The Result
Energy consumption was lowered by 35% per month, with $39,979 saved in first 10 months with an annual expectation of around $50,000, at no cost or risk. The savings from the first 5 months alone paid for the annual Preventative Maintenance Program that covered all of LSU Health Foundation's HVAC and control systems for entire building.
