Retrocommissioning For Existing Buildings

It’s no surprise that optimizing and maintaining building operations is crucial to achieving planned carbon and energy savings. And yet, a majority of HVAC systems and building controls are not performing at the level they were designed to meet. This session will delve into what EBCx is, why it is necessary, when it should be implemented, and its impacts on building performance and emissions. Questions, experience sharing, and participant engagement will be prioritized. We want participants to truly understand the value of EBCx in ensuring the continued life and health of buildings and building systems throughout their life cycle.
