HVAC Energy Consumption Projected to Rise

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, HVAC systems account for approximately 40% of the total energy used in commercial buildings. With global HVAC energy consumption projected to continue to rise, offsetting some of this increase with advanced energy-efficient technologies is vital.

Symbio 700 equipment controllers are part of Trane’s mission to bring more buildings up to speed with higher sustainability standards and equipment energy efficiency with our professional, adaptable performance programming. As the launch point for digitally connected smart buildings, Symbio’s equipment portfolio not only provides the foundation and tools to maximize energy and efficiencies for building owners, but it offers contractors significant convenience and flexibility for setup, troubleshooting, maintenance and more.

  • Flexibility: As building and occupancy needs change, Symbio’s flexibility to solve present and future challenges is key—it easily integrates with virtually any system via open standard protocols and has upgradable software for proactive enhancements, cybersecurity monitoring, and building optimization.
  • Connectivity: Secure, remote access allows owners to monitor and troubleshoot equipment data from anywhere, at any time, making it possible to diagnose, schedule, and control equipment with detailed event logs, trends, and alarm management at your fingertips.
  • Serviceability: The Symbio Service and Installation Mobile App with Bluetooth® Connectivity offers the ability to support customer needs and build stronger relationships even with less time spent in the building. In addition to easier installation, startup and commissioning, the app offers the ability to remotely diagnose issues and monitor alarms, trends and event logs to ensure optimized system performance and building management.

With the versatility to integrate both Trane and non-Trane building automation systems, the ease and convenience of secure, remote access, and the ability to maximize efficiencies and customer service, Symbio’s equipment portfolio is a win-win for both contractors and their customers.
