2: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
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
2: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
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

4: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
Yes, Grundfos pumps can be monitored and controlled via a BMS system as well as offering load adaptive performance
5: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
No, only 2% of new buildings have a performance that matches the design estimate
5: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
Yes, only 2% of buildings do not perform as they were designed to
