How Smart Building Controls Pay for Themselves

Warren House, a 330-unit post-war condo in Murray Hill, was staring down rising utility bills and Local Law 97 fines. What happened next offers a blueprint for other buildings facing similar pressures. Robert Post, vice president of co-op and condo at Parity, walks through the challenges Warren House encountered with their fan coil heating and cooling system, the technology solution they implemented, and why their first-year results blew past initial projections. He explains their approach of optimizing existing systems rather than replacing them, and details why collecting data throughout the building can be an invaluable asset for future planning. The conversation offers an inside look at how smart automation is transforming building operations, all while keeping residents comfortable and budgets intact.
