Energy Conservation
Rising energy prices are a daily challenge for businesses of all sizes. For commercial, industrial and institutional building owners and operators, energy conservation is one of the few ways to address the rising expenses that cut into the bottom line.
Lighting, heating and cooling typically account for nearly 75 percent all the energy consumption in a commercial building according to the Energy Information Administration.
Fortunately, energy conservation measures are not expensive and can pay for themselves within a short period of time. We consult with our clients to review their building’s heating, ventilating, air conditioning (HVAC) and lighting systems to identify opportunities to reduce operating costs.
Owning, operating or working in a high-performance building can provide a competitive advantage in your marketplace by increasing your cash flow, improving capital assets and providing a high-quality environment that exceeds occupants’ expectations.
We work with our clients to develop and implement energy conservation strategies for both new and existing buildings.
New Buildings
For new building design and construction, ColonialWebb Contractors is an industry leader utilizing LEED™ – Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. This Green Building Rating System benchmark identifies the parameters for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings.
The U.S. Green Building Council, which represents all segments of the building industry, developed LEED and contributed to its ongoing programs. At the cornerstone of this program are HVAC systems – one of our areas of expertise. Our HVAC design and construction expertise offers clients the most energy efficient systems possible for your building.
Existing Buildings
We work with clients to identify and implement energy conservation measures for existing buildings such as:
- Delivery of energy supplied to your building
- Current operating parameters
- Air conditioning systems
- Heating systems
- Lighting systems
- Insulation
- Economizer
- Control of these systems
At ColonialWebb Contractors our approach to energy conservation is clear. It’s about doing the right thing for our environment while decreasing your energy-related operating costs.
