Building Management Companies need Unified Portfolio Control


One of the largest costs in building management is the heating and cooling expense. It’s complex enough managing one building, but management companies usually have multiple buildings at multiple addresses within their portfolio. 

While Heat-Timer® Controls are considered best-in-class for fuel savings on the heating side, many building management companies may not realize that our internet controls provide robust, centralized portfolio management capability on the back end. The saving money on fuel is a given, but Heat-Timer ® internet controls also increase visibility and ease of control, anticipate boiler/mechanical room problems and reduce maintenance costs significantly in a way that every building manager will appreciate.

How Heat-Timer® Controls Can Make Your Building Management System Better

A  Building Management System  (BMS), also called Building Automation System (BAS) is a system that allows building managers to monitor and control a building’s major mechanical and safety systems in one central, easy-to-use application. A BMS can be thought of as a distributed network of building systems supervised and controlled in one central platform. The network of field controllers and other system controllers are distributed throughout the building and communicate to the BMS through a local area network. Field controllers can be general purpose, supplied by the BMS integrator and used for simple applications like lighting control, ventilation fans and building access. With a BMS, these applications can also be separated by zone, floor or other combinations to yield optimal HVAC performance. Field controllers for mission critical systems like fire alarms and heating are specialized and can act independently, as well as under BMS control. The Heat-Timer® Platinum series boil
