ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Beyond energy savings, the greatest advantages of INNCOM INNergy solutions are flexibility, expandability, and system integration. The e4 Smart Digital Thermostat can be used as a direct digital control (DDC) thermostat, as the heart of a standalone in-room energy management system, or as the key guestroom element of a powerful energy management system.
Centrally Controlled Energy Management
Linking all guestroom thermostats with INNCOM's INNcontrolTM provides more powerful
energy management and many additional capabilities.
Expansion options include:
- Remote room occupancy indication
- Remote HVAC control
- Guestroom HVAC diagnostics
- Peak demand load shedding
- PMS/BMS interface
- Automatic lighting control
- Remote mini-bar access reporting
- Remote smoke detector annunciation
With the addition of a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor and door switch, the e4 becomes the brain of a highly efficient standalone energy management system. Without compromising guest comfort, guestroom energy costs can typically be reduced by 30% or more. And, when integrated guest status controls are added to the e4, even greater guest convenience and staff efficiencies are achieved.
By connecting to INNCOM's INNcontrol network, the true energy and cost-effectiveness of the INNergy solution is realized. With an e4 networked to a centrally controlled system, the hotel gains the highest level of energy savings with a feature-rich energy management system for both local and remote control of guestroom HVAC equipment and devices.
For areas with high labor costs or restrictive electrical codes, installation can be wireless by using INNCOM's patented IR and/or RF technology.
Additional expansion options include:
- Room occupancy status reporting
- Automatic lighting control
- Mini-bar access reporting
- Smoke detector alarm reporting
