Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Carbon Dioxide
Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy
and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Lighting controls and scheduling are some of the easiest low and no cost investments in
energy efficiency. Controlling the artificial lights with occupancy or daylight controls and
replacing inefficient bulbs can significantly reduce your electrical energy spend. In the graph

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

This page shows how electricity use in your building compares to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the
building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating or cooling equipment operating in
your building. Overall flat consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extended fan operation, 3)
extensive reheat, and 4) an inefficient lighting system. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings
which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Carbon Dioxide
Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy
and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

How Does Your Building Use Electricity Today? This page shows how electricity use in your building compares to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating or cooling equipment operating in your building. Overall flat consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extended fan operation, 3) extensive reheat, and 4) an inefficient lighting system.Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read MONTHLY ELECTRICTY COST ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION AND OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE Utility Bill Analysis Electricity Consumption Electricity comprises 66.6 % of your total utility cost, and 35% of your total utility consumption. Your Total Spend on electricity is $17,653, so when considering savings opportunities, remember you can only save some percentage of that total. G-262
How Does Your Building Use Fuel Today? This page shows how Fuel is used in your building relative to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating equipment operating in your building. Overall excessive consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extensive reheat, and 3) heating in warmer months. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read MONTHLY FUEL COST FUEL CONSUMPTION AND OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE Utility Bill Analysis Fuel Consumption Fuel comprises 34% of your total utility cost, and 65% of your total utility consumption. Your Total Spend on Fuel is $11,138, so when considering savings opportunities, remember you can only save some percentage G-263
Building Comfort and Ventilation Analysis This page shows the min/max range of temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide levels measured during occupied periods. Reducing the range is critical to achieving a building under control that is properly ventilated which allows tenants to be comfortable and productive. The action ratings are based on the worst case found when comparing measured data during occupied hours against established industry guidelines (ENERGY STAR, BOMA, ASHRAE, DOE). TEMPERATURE FINDINGS 3 space(s) were too warm at times 0 space(s) were too cool at times 4 space(s) had excessive temperature variation RELATIVE HUMIDITY 4 space(s) had high relative humidity at times 2 space(s) had low relative humidity CARBON DIOXIDE Your building is over ventilated and can save energy by reducing the overall amount of outside air ventilation 1 space(s) had elevated carbon dioxide levels 5 space(s) had low carbon dioxide levelsG-264
Temperature The ideal temperature is between 68 ºF and 75 ºF during the heating season and 72 ºF and 78 ºF during the cooling season, with variation of less than 3 ºF. Lowering the heating set point and raising the cooling set point can save significant energy while maintaining a comfortable and productive working environment. Sources: ASHRAE Standard 55 – 1992, BOMA, ENERGY STAR, DOE ENERGY SAVING OPPORTUNITIES Our findings indicate there are several ways to save money by operating your building differently. Energy Recommendations based on Measurements Calibrate thermostats to reduce temperature variation Verify the control system is shutting the heat and cooling equipment off Move thermostats to reduce temperature variation Balance air flow within duct system to reduce temperature variation TIME – TEMPERATURE G-265
Relative-Humidity Optimum comfort and health is achieved when relative humidity is maintained between 30% and 55%. Readings outside these boundaries may indicate ventilation issues which contribute to an increase of energy used to condition the space. Sources: ASHRAE Standard 55 – 1992, American Lung Association, Indoor Air Quality Association, BOMA, ENERGY STAR, DOE ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Our findings indicate areas in your building that may have issues worth investigating for possible energy savings, and especially if there are comfort complaints. Possible Causes No humidification system present Excessive ventilation during some periods Recommended Actions Add humidification system Improve ventilation control TIME‐RELATIVE HUMIDITY G-266
Carbon Dioxide Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air, resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this additional outside air. Sources: ASHRAE Standard 62-2001, U.S. Green Building Council, Indoor Air Quality Association, Health Canada, BOMA, ENERGY STAR, DOE Energy Savings Opportunities Our findings indicate there are several ways to save money by operating your building different: Energy Recommendations Based on Measurements Verify dampers are not stuck or leaky Reduce the amount of outside air ventilation Install demand control ventilation TIME‐CARBON DIOXIDE G-267
Lighting Lighting controls and scheduling are some of the easiest low and no cost investments in energy efficiency. Controlling the artificial lights with occupancy or daylight controls and replacing inefficient bulbs can significantly reduce your electrical energy spend. In the graph below, artificial lights are represented by the sharp on/off of the curve, natural daylight by a gradual increase, and direct sunlight by the large spikes.

Carbon Dioxide
Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy
and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dewpoint
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dewpoint during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dewpoint
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dewpoint during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

pg. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Energy Use Cost Carbon Footprint Your building’s ENERGY STAR® Energy Performance Rating is 68. Its Energy Use Index is 80kbtu per sq. ft. Your building’s annual cost per square foot is $1.34 per sq. ft. overall. Your building’s annual carbon footprint is 925 metric tons of CO2 or 7lbs per sq. ft. Your building’s ENERGY STAR score of 68 ranks you above average versus your peers, but falls below the minimum rating of 75 that is required for ENERGY STAR certification. Your building’s cost per square foot is $0.14 more than anENERGY STAR® facility average. Your annual cost can be reduced by $17,998 (11%) or $89,990 over 5 years by achieving an ENERGY STAR score of 75. Your building’s carbon emissions are 23% less than the industry average, and can be reduced by 1lbs per sq. ft. by achieving an ENERGY STAR score of 75. You could save up to $17,998 annually or 89,990 over 5 years by raising your ENERGY STAR score to the level of 75 While a detailed energy audit is required to quantify actual savings, the savings potential can be estimated by comparing the performance of your building to the ENERGY STAR database.

pg. 3 How Does Your Building Use Fuel Today? This page shows how Fuel is used in your building relative to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating equipment operating in your building. Overall excessive consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extensive reheat, and 3) heating in warmer months. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read MONTHLY FUEL COST FUEL CONSUMPTION AND OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE Utility Bill Analysis Fuel Consumption Fuel comprises 34.0% of your total utility cost, and 65.0% of your total utility consumption. Your Total Spend on Fuel is $57,643, so when considering savings opportunities, remember you can only save some percentage G-354
pg. 4 Building Comfort and Ventilation Analysis This page shows the min/max range of temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide levels measured during occupied periods. Reducing the range is critical to achieving a building under control that is properly ventilated which allows tenants to be comfortable and productive. The action ratings are based on the worst case found when comparing measured data during occupied hours against established industry guidelines (ENERGY STAR, BOMA, ASHRAE, DOE). TEMPERATURE FINDINGS 3 space(s) were too warm at times space(s) were too cool at times 4 space(s) had excessive temperature variation RELATIVE HUMIDITY 4 space(s) had high relative humidity at times 2 space(s) had low relative humidity CARBON DIOXIDE Your building is over ventilated and can save energy by reducing the overall amount of outside air ventilation 1 space(s) had elevated carbon dioxide levels 5 space(s) had low carbon dioxide levelsG-355
pg. 5 Temperature The ideal temperature is between 68 ºF and 75 ºF during the heating season and 72 ºF and 78 ºF during the cooling season, with variation of less than 3 ºF. Lowering the heating set point and raising the cooling set point can save significant energy while maintaining a comfortable and productive working environment. Sources: ASHRAE Standard 55 – 1992, BOMA, ENERGY STAR, DOE ENERGY SAVING OPPORTUNITIES Our findings indicate there are several ways to save money by operating your building differently. Energy Recommendations based on Measurements Calibrate thermostats to reduce temperature variation Verify the control system is shutting the heat and cooling equipment off Move thermostats to reduce temperature variation Balance air flow within duct system to reduce temperature variation TIME – TEMPERATURE G-356
pg. 6 Relative-Humidity Optimum comfort and health is achieved when relative humidity is maintained between 30% and 55%. Readings outside these boundaries may indicate ventilation issues which contribute to an increase of energy used to condition the space. Sources: ASHRAE Standard 55 – 1992, American Lung Association, Indoor Air Quality Association, BOMA, ENERGY STAR, DOE ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Our findings indicate areas in your building that may have issues worth investigating for possible energy savings, and especially if there are comfort complaints. Possible Causes No humidification system present Excessive ventilation during some periods Recommended Actions Add humidification system Improve ventilation control TIME‐RELATIVE HUMIDITY G-357
pg. 7 Carbon Dioxide Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air, resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this additional outside air.

How Does Your Building Use Electricity Today?
This page shows how electricity use in your building compares to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the
building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating or cooling equipment operating in
your building. Overall flat consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extended fan operation, 3)
extensive reheat, and 4) an inefficient lighting system. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings
which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read

How Does Your Building Use Fuel Today?
This page shows how Fuel is used in your building relative to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the
building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating equipment operating in your
building. Overall excessive consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extensive reheat, and 3)
heating in warmer months. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings which are “fixed” the next
time the meter is actually read
Monthly Fuel Costs
Fuel Consumption and Outside Air Temperature
Utility Bill Analysis
Fuel Consumption
Fuel comprises 31.0% of your total utility cost,
and 58.3% of your total utility consumption.
Your Total Spend on Fuel is $5,112, so when
considering savings opportunities, remember
you can only save some percentage of that
total.

Building Comfort and Ventilation Analysis
This page shows the min/max range of temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide levels measured during occupied periods.
Reducing the range is critical to achieving a building under control that is properly ventilated which allows tenants to be
comfortable and productive. The action ratings are based on the worst case found when comparing measured data during
occupied hours against established industry guidelines (ENERGY STAR, BOMA, ASHRAE, DOE).

Carbon Dioxide
Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy
and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dewpoint
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dewpoint during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Outdoor Temperature and Dewpoint
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dewpoint during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

Outdoor Temperature and Dew Point
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dew point during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.

How Does Your Building Use Electricity Today?
This page shows how electricity use in your building compares to outside weather and helps identify performance issues in the
building. Typically your consumption should track the weather pattern for the type of heating or cooling equipment operating in
your building. Overall flat consumption can be indicative of 1) simultaneous heating and cooling, 2) extended fan operation, 3)
extensive reheat, and 4) an inefficient lighting system. Be aware, some variation can be caused by estimated meter readings
which are “fixed” the next time the meter is actually read

Carbon Dioxide
Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is an important aspect of ensuring a comfortable, healthy
and energy efficient indoor environment. At levels above 1000 ppm, air becomes stale and
less comfortable to breathe. Levels well below 1000 ppm may indicate excessive outside air,
resulting in higher than necessary energy costs due to the need for conditioning of this
additional outside air.

Lighting
Lighting controls and scheduling are some of the easiest low and no cost investments in
energy efficiency. Controlling the artificial lights with occupancy or daylight controls and
replacing inefficient bulbs can significantly reduce your electrical energy spend. In the graph
below, artificial lights are represented by the sharp on/off of the curve, natural daylight by a
gradual increase, and direct sunlight by the large spikes.

Outdoor Temperature and Dewpoint
A major factor in the total cost of heating and cooling a building is the heat lost (during heating season) or gained (during
cooling season) due to the difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures. The amount of energy consumed to
compensate for the difference between outdoor temperature and the desired indoor temperature is driven by three primary
factors:
Heat lost or gained due to conduction through walls, ceilings, and windows.
Energy required to heat, cool, and dehumidify outside air entering the building, either through infiltration or
mechanical ventilation.
Heat gain due to solar load.
This chart shows the outdoor temperature and dewpoint during the test period at the test location.
More aggressive temperature setbacks during unoccupied periods may provide energy savings with no impact on
occupant comfort. Proper ventilation control and use of an economizer for free cooling may also contribute significantly to
energy savings.
