A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) control upgrade at Temple Hoyne Buell Hall will reduce the building’s energy footprint and increase indoor air quality for students, faculty, and staff. Currently, the HVAC controls at the individual room level at Temple Hoyne Buell Hall (THBH) are outdated and failing. This obsolete equipment cannot be programmed to operate efficiently and causes an increase in utility consumption throughout the year, as well as reduced comfort level. This project will replace these controllers with digital Siemens controllers, which will allow custom programming to be implemented that will reduce airflow and better control space conditions.

This proposal directly funds:
1. Controller enclosures and Siemens DXR Controller
2. Temperature Sensors and Siemens Thermostats
3. Valve Actuators and Valves
4. Electrical and Occupancy Sensors
5. Piping
