Trane Adds Controls Services To Its Predictive Maintenance Offering

Trane Controls Services consists of regular monitoring and adjusting of existing HVAC controls systems to maintain continuous optimum performance at the lowest possible operating and maintenance cost.

The effectiveness of a Building Management System has a direct effect on overall HVAC operating costs, said Rajesh Sikka, business leader for Trane commercial business in India. With Trane Controls Services, customers can keep their systems functioning optimally so that energy saving strategies continue to deliver the intended results.

The new program complements the predictive maintenance services offered by Trane. Controls Services and the existing Trane Select Contracts, which focus on servicing mechanical equipment, are designed to work together to offer customers a total building service solution to suit their needs. As with Trane Select, customers can choose from four levels of coverage, ranging from preventive maintenance to fully comprehensive services.

The Controls Services program recognizes the critical importance of building controls, which effectively serve as an HVAC system brain, directly affecting energy efficiency, building equipment and occupant comfort and satisfaction.

Over time small changes and adjustments can cause inefficiencies or mechanical wear on HVAC equipment. Through regular controls servicing, Trane helps prevent emergency failures. A proactive evaluation of building performance to identify and expose possible HVAC system improvements is also performed.
