Building Automation System Basics

Building Automation Systems or BAS has become a more common buzz word. Understanding BAS and the benefits it can provide require time and research. You’ve come to the right place to gain clarity on system automation.

What Is Building Automation?

Building automation uses a centralized control system to monitor and operate your building’s HVAC automatically. A building automation system can also control other settings, including the lights, water, and security system. A BAS (building automation system) includes a user interface that enables you to manage various settings. It also provides insight into the system’s status and spots any potential problems that may disrupt performance.

BAS is intricate in design, providing straightforward and simplistic control for end-users. Business owners and facility managers who maintain large commercial buildings have many responsibilities. They must prioritize the building’s safety, comfort, and security to keep the business running smoothly. Therefore, if you haven’t upgraded your facility yet, BAS could be the key convenience.

How Can a Building Automation System Help Your Business?

You run a tight ship, so every little bit counts to simplify processes and optimize your time and resources. Building automation systems provide these benefits and more for businesses in every industry. Whether you run a factory, office, or healthcare facility, occupants rely on you to ensure the environment is safe and comfortable. Additionally, your employees depend on your professionalism and expertise to enhance their work environment, prioritize efficiency, and ensure money is spent and dispersed properly.

Those who invest in building automation systems can:

Save Money

There are several expenses associated with running your business. It’s wise to take advantage of every opportunity to save money. Building automation systems eliminate the need for manual operation. Enjoy lower utility bills since BAS enables users to monitor building occupancy and adjust BAS and HVAC needs accordingly. When used correctly, building automation systems provide an excellent return on investment since their advanced technological features are self-reliant and low-maintenance.

Boost Productivity

Your building’s climate and indoor air quality (IAQ) have a direct impact on employees’ performance. When your heating and cooling system is outdated or lacks automation, it can decrease productivity. Building automation systems promote proper ventilation, which enhances your indoor air quality.

Additionally, BAS systems enable you to automatically set temperature zone settings according to each area’s needs. No one wants to work in a hot, stuffy environment. Conversely, it’s hard to focus in the freezing cold. When employees’ work conditions are more comfortable, they can perform their jobs to the best of their abilities.

Conserve Energy

Energy conservation is a top-of-the-mind awareness for many property owners. As sustainability and environmentally friendly practices are becoming increasingly important, businesses are investing in building automation system integration to leverage control over their systems. BAS adapts to your building and accommodates its requirements, so you don’t have to make adjustments manually. Motion sensors, timers, and automated settings do all the work, so you don’t have to. As a result, systems work harmoniously without energy-draining inefficiencies.

Raise Property Value

property’s value is higher due to this advantage. Technology is continually evolving, and it’s more cost-effective for buyers to choose a technologically advanced building than to pay for HVAC upgrades later. Your asking price includes BAS, which, naturally, is a more appealing deal.

It’s not too late to make changes to your facility. Air Comfort can lead you in the right direction.
