FACT: Buildings are not operating well
Lack on information on how to operate buildings
Have equipment problems unknown to the operator
Are operated using conventional sequence that are far from optimal
The result: Poor comfort
Energy waste of 10 to 50%

(OPR) from viewpoints of environment,
energy and facility usage, and auditing and

1. Pre-Design Phase
o Program Step : occupancy requirements, functional
use, quality of construction, energy management
goals and requirements, indoor environment
o Planing Step
2. Design Phase: specification for the HVAC system,
simulation. commissioning plan

4. Construction Phase
o Construction Step
• HVAC equipment is checked
• balancing water and air system
• achievement of design indoor environment
• performance of building management controls
and energy consumption
• report
o Acceptance Step
• verify the accuracy of the balancing report

NH Hotel Eurobuilding
Madrid, Spain
The hotel was built in 1969
and has recently been

million Euros.
This audit focuses only on one
of the main buildings, the high-
rise, a building of
approximately 50 100 m2.

Some example:
Balancing of the heating system
The 2-pipe systems to the fan-coils in the guest
rooms are not balanced. In some cases the partner
valve is missing in the system, making it impossible
to balance with reliable methods. On each floor
there are balancing valves for the floor and for the
two branches on each floor. All these valves are
fully open.

The two fan-coil pipe systems work as heating in

Some example:
Supply temperature of cooling
machines
The cooling machines are working constantly with 8/6
°C in/out temperature on the evaporator side during
the whole year. These temperatures are only needed
during the warmest period in the summer. In all other
periods it is possible to increase the temperatures.
This will increase the cooling machines Coefficient Of

The near future Nearly zero energy buildings
will require us to BALANCE the
energy loads in a building with
minimum NET use of energy.
With highly insulated structures
this balance is mainly about
how Solar Gains, Internal Gains
and Ventilation energy needs
interact with each other.
Ref: https://www.educate-
sustainability.eu/portal/content/thermal-balance-
buildings
In both hot and cold climates energy efficiency can be
achieved by MINIMISING ventilation rates, with the
attendant potential for IAQ problems and Health.

Monitoring savings
Building electrical savings of between 19% to 33% p.a.
Building electrical savings/m2 between 61 to 100 kWh/m2/a
In economic terms:
Measured recurrent savings of 9 to 14 EUR/m2/a
Recorded ‘one-off’ setup costs between 0.1 to 2 EUR/m2
Estimated 0.1 – 3 EUR/m2/a to maintain.
Net returns between 7 – 13 EUR/m2/a
Success in reducing HVAC energy use is providing the
confidence and finance (from savings) to tackle other electrical
use as well.

Conclusion
• We need the commissioning
• Better indoor climate
• Energy saving with commissioning
• Commissioning in the design phase (good practice)
• Commissioning in the operational phase
• Monitoring, commissioning – iSERV EU project
