An energy retrofit leads to substantially reduced energy consumption over conventional systems based on detailed analysis of existing system parameters. The resultant of our AAD TECH Retrofit Solutions is sometimes more than 50% reduction in power consumption dependent upon variable factors.
Energy efficiency has become an integral part of building services design, maintenance and upgrade. Many organisations overlook air handling units (AHU’s) when looking to save energy. Upgrading AHU’s with plug fans using EC motor technology can realise significant savings in energy, maintenance and more.
