Can an electrical energy efficiency solution also lower gas consumption? You bet!

An interesting side-benefit of REGEN's EnviroGrid solution is that it can help building owners reduce not only their electricity, but also their gas bills.

Our experience has been that most people don't realize how much money they're wasting through inefficient HVAC operating schedules,  often running equipment when their building is unoccupied.

Using the EnviroGrid Portal's scheduler, you can ensure that HVAC units don't cool or heat zones when your building is dormant.  Our latest wiring kit (included for new installations and available as a low-cost upgrade to existing customers), ensures that EnviroGrid controllers now can tie into both cooling and heating signal lines commonly found in packaged HVAC units.

For customers in very cold climates (where there may be a risk of freezing water pipes if heating is completely shut off) one can simply set low overnight duty cycles (e.g. 25%, rather than 0%) during the winter to ensure sufficient heating is provided.
