Energy Saving Technologies for Your Business

MightyServ appreciates the fact that heating, ventilation and air conditioning accounts for over 50 percent of your energy bill. In a bid to help businesses to minimize their energy consumption and increase their energy savings, we can implement any of the following energy saving technologies: Thermal Energy Storage In commercial establishments, the electricity tariff is designed in such a way that the cost per unit during peak hours (normal working hours) is much higher than off-peak rates.

There are also other things that need to be noted. The Bigger The Company; the Better The Service One may be tempted into thinking that big companies do everything right. This could be due to the idea advertised by such firms that they offer better service because they have more technicians. This means more hands on the clients’ equipment.

How Does Office Temperature Affect Your Productivity?

Air temperature in workplaces has a direct effect on productivity. Common sense tells us that if it’s too hot or two cold, productivity will definitely suffer, but even a shift of several degrees in office temperature can make a difference in productivity and overall workplace ergonomics. The majority of scientific research has shown that optimal office temperature between should be between 70 and 73 degrees Fahrenheit provides the best air temperature to obtain maximum worker productivity. What Is The Ideal Office Temperature? Unfortunately, different studies can produce widely different answers as shown by one conducted by Cornell University and another conducted by the British government. The Cornell study indicated that 77 degrees Fahrenheit was the optimal temperature, while the British study put it at 74 degrees Fahrenheit. Even with the variations in ideal temperature, all of the studies indicated that swings of just a few degrees can affect productivity by a minimum of 5%. Consider if your commercial HVAC system is set for an optimal temperature of 71.5 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature goes up to 77 degrees, productivity drops to 98%. By the time its 92 degrees, productivity is at 85%. When temperature decreases, the falloff isn’t as steep.
