Field Results: Buildings Using DomeSystems

A facilities team overseeing 6 Class B office buildings in the Atlanta metro linked DomeSystems to its Johnson Controls Metasys system in one deployment session. Fixed weekly schedules had gone unchanged for over two years. In 30 days, DomeSystems found 23 zones heating or cooling while unoccupied and issued corrective setpoint commands. At 90 days, portfolio energy use measured 14% below the same 90-day window one year earlier, with weather controlled using local HDD and CDD data.

A mixed-use property had ground-floor retail and four office floors, with two conflicting HVAC schedules: retail extended into evenings, while office tenants ran Mon-Fri only; shared zones served both. DomeSystems created per-zone models that learned each floor type's occupancy pattern and produced schedules without manual reconciliation of retail and office lease needs. The facilities director reported a 22% reduction in hours for manual schedule adjustments and HVAC override tickets during the 6 mo. after deployment.

A 200k sqft logistics and distribution center with conditioned warehouse and office space ran three chillers on a fixed lead-lag rotation that ignored actual cooling load. DomeSystems connected to Siemens Desigo CC and tracked staging against measured return air temperatures and outside air conditions. In 6 wks, it found the lead chiller running at low load overnight, when one smaller chiller sufficed. Revised staging recommendations cut chiller runtime by an average of 2.4 hrs per day during the shoulder season.
