Efficiency Improvement

The single largest energy-consumer in a building is its HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system. It accounts for almost 60% of the total energy cost in a building. As such, most energy conservation measures place priority on improving the efficiency of the HVAC system.

Replacing an older chiller, for example, will definitely reduce energy usage. Whilst it makes sense from a green perspective, new chillers can be a huge financial strain. An ideal alternative is to enhance the system efficiency of the existing air-conditioning system. Most energy conservation opportunities lie in chilled water circulation, condenser water circulation, chiller efficiency, air side circulation and mechanical ventilation. With the right optimisation program, even very old chillers can regain the same efficiency as when it was first commissioned.

Comfort Management’s innovations solutions help building management see vast improvement on the efficiency of HVAC system, without the need to replace new equipment. 

Energy Performance Contracting (EPC)

Our EPC program not only guarantees the energy savings for building owners, we assist you to pursue energy efficiency goals with no interruptions and compromises to business operations and comfort level.

Building owners can also opt for the zero outlay approach and have the project cost invested by Comfort Management and pay us through the energy savings that you have achieved. We provide a risk free path to attain your sustainability goals.

Government schemes available such as BCA Green Mark Incentive provide grants to eligible parties to defray part of the project cost and shorten the payback period.
