A heating stage and a compressor stage are energized at the same time.
A heating stage and a compressor stage are energized at the same time.
Gas or electric heat is being removed by the compressor — pure waste, and hard on both.
Check the thermostat/controller mode logic and the heat/cool interlock; look for a stuck contactor.
How Energy Agent prices a finding
Estimate the energy spent fighting yourself.
Enter positive numbers to see an estimate.
Cooling that only exists to cancel heating (and vice versa) is priced on both sides: chilled water at your kW/ton and rate, heat at your boiler efficiency and gas price, for the hours the overlap lasts. Energy Agent finds the overlap in valve and coil trends.
Screening estimate. Energy Agent measures the real fault hours and load from your trends and prices them at your tariff.
Screening-level estimates; confirm with measurement and verification before capital commitment.
On days cool enough that mechanical cooling should barely run, the compressor runs most of the time.
The compressor is starting far more often than a healthy unit should.
A stage is flipping on and off many times an hour.
On hot days with the compressor running the supply air is not getting as cold as the coil should make it.
Send twelve months of interval data and a BAS trend export. Energy Agent returns a ranked list of what is wasting money, what each item is worth per year at your tariff, and what to do about it.
