Intelligent Building Operations, Powered by Physics

Edge analytics in your mechanical room. Cloud intelligence across your portfolio. From chiller performance to automated work orders — one platform.

Industry Challenges

flame

Energy Waste

30–40% of HVAC energy is wasted through inefficient operation, poor sequencing, and equipment degradation that goes undetected.

thermometer

Tenant Complaints

Comfort issues lead to lost leases and reputation damage. Hot and cold calls consume engineering staff time with reactive firefighting.

unplug

Siloed Systems

BAS, CMMS, and utility data live in disconnected systems, making it impossible to correlate equipment performance with energy spend.

users

Staff Shortages

Fewer engineers are managing more buildings. Institutional knowledge walks out the door with every retirement.

Physics Models

COP

Coefficient of performance: cooling output divided by compressor work input

COP = Q_evap / W_comp

Approach temperature

Difference between leaving water temperature and refrigerant saturation temperature; indicates heat-exchanger fouling

°F
T_approach = T_leaving - T_ref_sat

Lift

Pressure differential the compressor must overcome; drives energy consumption

psi
Lift = P_cond - P_evap

IPLV tracking

Integrated part-load value weighted across four load points per AHRI 550/590

kW/ton
IPLV = 0.01A + 0.42B + 0.45C + 0.12D

Superheat/subcooling

Refrigerant superheat and subcooling monitoring for charge assessment

°F
ΔT_sh = T_ref - T_sat(P)

ML Models

Condenser fouling

0.87%

Gradual fouling from rising approach temperature trends

Compressor surge

0.75%

Surge conditions from vibration, current, and pressure patterns

Refrigerant leak

0.8%

Charge loss inferred from superheat/subcooling drift

Load prediction

0.83%

Anticipated cooling demand from weather and occupancy data
