Test results
Congratulations. You have passed the test and completed the 84 - Adding value in HVAC applications
Achieved badges:
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: No, Grundfos pumps provide load adaptive performance, so no external control is possible
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: Yes, Grundfos pumps still require manual monitoring and control
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: Yes, Grundfos pumps can be monitored and controlled via a BMS system as well as offering load adaptive performance
Q: Do Grundfos Modular HVAC systems reduce the HVAC system footprint?
A: No, the benefits come from reducing complexity and time spent on selecting and sizing
Q: Do Grundfos Modular HVAC systems reduce the HVAC system footprint?
A: Yes, but the compact size comes at a high price that the building owner needs to consider in relation to the maximised rentable square meters
Q: Do Grundfos Modular HVAC systems reduce the HVAC system footprint?
A: Yes, benefits come from ensuring maximum profitability of rentable square meters as well as reducing complexity and time spent on selecting and sizing
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: No, the benefits come from less need for time consuming transportation and assembly onsite
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: Yes, as factory production of HVAC modules is far more efficient than onsite construction
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: No, you get the security of one supplier – but you still need to unpack and install onsite
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: No, only 2% of new buildings have a performance that matches the design estimate
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: Yes, only 2% of buildings do not perform as they were designed to
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: No, but this is expected – adjusting and optimising building services after completion is always calculated into costs
Q: Do you know how much energy in a commercial building is consumed by a HVAC system?
A: On average 10-20%
Q: Do you know how much energy in a commercial building is consumed by a HVAC system?
A: On average 30-40%
Q: Do you know how much energy in a commercial building is consumed by a HVAC system?
A: On average 50-60%
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: If too little space is used, you have high operation and service costs; and using too much space reduces the floor area that can be rented out
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: If the required amount of space is planned for at the design stage, this will not be a problem – as long as it matches the size of the installation
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: This is an issue that can be resolved by renting out the installation floor area to the service provider
