The Challenge
Common energy challenges in Commercial HVAC
- HVAC is the biggest single load in most buildings.
- Heating and cooling fighting each other across zones.
- Poor set-point control and aggressive schedules.
- Short-cycling compressors and comfort complaints.
- No visibility on plant performance or when it's degrading.
What We Measure
What ESCOUT measures
- Chiller, boiler and air handling unit energy.
- Compressor run hours and cycling.
- Supply and return temperatures.
- Pump and fan energy.
- Zone temperatures.

How ESCOUT learns what's normal
ESCOUT learns each plant's normal performance against load and outdoor conditions. So it can spot the subtle drift that comes before faults and rising costs.
Coach
How ESCOUT identifies waste, faults & decline
- Simultaneous heating and cooling.
- Compressors short-cycling.
- Valves fighting each other.
- Set-points too aggressive for the conditions.
- Performance drifting from the commissioning baseline.

How ESCOUT recommends practical fixes
ESCOUT recommends control tuning, set-point optimisation, sequencing and maintenance. Each one tied to what the plant is actually doing, not a blanket service schedule.
Repeat
How monitoring verifies the result
Monitoring shows fewer run hours and less cycling, plus better plant performance against the baseline. The trend's visible over time.
