Building Management System Upgrade and Energy Efficiency Improvements for Commercial Facility
Introduction:
Energy efficiency is a top priority for property owners and managers as it can lead to significant cost savings and environmental benefits. In this case study, we will examine the energy savings and other benefits achieved by a property that invested in the replacement of an existing built-up system with a Rooftop Unit (RTU) and a new TPO roofing system.

In this case study, we will examine the energy savings and other benefits achieved by a property that invested in the replacement of an existing built-up system with a Rooftop Unit (RTU) and a new TPO roofing system.
Background:
The property, located in Irvine CA, was facing high energy costs and was looking for ways to reduce them. After conducting an energy audit, it was discovered that the existing built-up system was not energy-efficient, leading to increased energy consumption and costs. It was then decided to invest in the replacement of the built-up system with a new RTU and TPO roofing system.

After conducting an energy audit, it was discovered that the existing built-up system was not energy-efficient, leading to increased energy consumption and costs. It was then decided to invest in the replacement of the built-up system with a new RTU and TPO roofing system.
Implementation:
The property invested 780,000 dollars in a partnership with a team of mechanical engineers and a mechanical contractor to design and install a new 60-ton RTU and TPO roofing system. The new system was installed by a team of trained technicians, and the process was completed within three months.

Results:
The replacement of the built-up system with the new RTU and TPO roofing system resulted in significant energy savings and cost reduction for the property. The new RTU system is more energy-efficient, which led to a reduction in energy consumption and costs. Additionally, the new TPO roofing system provided better insulation and durability, leading to further energy savings. The property was able to achieve a return on investment (ROI) of 2.2 years, meaning that the investment paid for itself within that time period.
The new RTU system has a longer lifespan, which means less maintenance and repair costs in the long run. The TPO roofing system also has a longer lifespan and better insulation, this will lead to energy savings and better comfort for the building users.
