Mike Clayton walks through how Computrols integrates with the systems already in your building, speaking their protocols natively on our own hardware, and what happens when a legacy controller fails after the integration. Six real buildings, before and after. Questions about your building? Email Mike.
The install is the small number. Service agreements, proprietary parts, forced upgrades, and rented software are where the money goes over twenty years, and how to avoid them.
Points, controllers, networks, and front ends explained for operators and managers who are new to building automation or inheriting a system.
How Computrols integrates with Siemens field networks natively, what stays, what goes, and what the building looks like afterward. Siemens integration page
What the end of Siemens Insight support means for your building, and the alternative to a forced upgrade. Read more
Keeping an I/NET installation running and visible without replacing the field controllers.
The questions to ask before you buy: ownership, openness, support, compatibility, and total cost over the life of the system.
How to compare systems on what they cost to own, not what they cost to install.
Billing tenants for after-hours HVAC on top of the system you already have, including how one building replaced a subscription platform and paid the project back in about two years.
The controller that hosts an existing trunk and controls what’s downstream, so an integration takes layers out instead of adding one.
A technical session on controlling cooling tower fans to wet-bulb approach instead of a fixed setpoint, and the energy it saves.
What it takes to add controls to a mechanical business: people, training, first projects, and the support you can expect from Computrols. Read the guide
The longer-form follow-up: pricing, staffing, the first year, and the mistakes to avoid.
What the partnership includes and how partners win work with it. Become a Distribution Partner
New sessions are announced in Automate, the Computrols newsletter, along with tech tips and what’s new at Computrols.
