Campus  Energy Facts for HVAC:

HVAC costs account for over 70% of the campus energy costs.

3600 fans use over 26,000 horse power to push 28,000,000 cubic feet of air per minute to and from the campus buildings.

The average cost of conditioning one cubic foot of air entering from outside is over $4.25 per year.

Over 640 major air handling systems are monitored and scheduled for energy conservation using our building automation system.
