Business Situations

Retail chain outlets, especially restaurants, often have common building problems such as uncontrolled indoor temperature & bad indoor air quality.

It tends to lead to poor comfort, which will ultimately impact the well-being of staffs if left unattended to. Outlet owners are concerned that uncontrolled temperature in the typical Malaysian weather, especially if too humid, can result in mould creation that might develop into hygiene hazards in the restaurant.

For a long time, owners have had trouble keeping the energy consumption of outlet in check so that they would not cause high energy bill at the end of the day. Management have realized that the lack of visibility and transparency of data is the main culprit of high maintenance and energy costs in the business, as there is no real-time alert in the system when breakdown occurs, and no real-time changes of indoor temperature based on demand and weather.

The Challenges

  • Low thermal comfort due to HVAC fixed point settings & lack of adaptivity in environmental changes, both indoor and outdoor wise.
  • Issues of differential pressure keeping doors from operating smoothly & smoke and odor in the kitchen area from being contained.
  • High CAPEX resulted by unmonitored energy consumption & absence of effective predictive maintenance system.
