McKenney's installed direct digital controls on the HVAC systems of 77 buildings at a military repair facility in Albany, Georgia. They discovered some existing HVAC systems needed repairs and connecting the new controls to the facility's network required technical expertise. McKenney's coordinated with the on-site public works department, performed field engineering to optimize system performance and install controls while adhering to base security protocols. The facility can now realize energy savings through monitoring and only operating systems when buildings are occupied.

3. McKenney’s installed energy-saving direct digital controls (DDC) to
existing HVAC systems in 77 buildings at a Georgia repair facility that
supports a U.S military branch.

4. The Challenge
McKenney’s discovered the condition of some existing HVAC systems
didn’t quite match expectations. Connecting the new DDC
Systems to the facility’s network was going to require a high level of
technical expertise from the team. While on site, there was also
limited time to survey project requirements and the team had to
follow strict security procedures around guarded buildings.
The Solution
To get the multiple HVAC systems in proper working order,
McKenney’s coordinated efforts with the on-site public works
department. Field engineering was done to both optimize HVAC
systems performance and then install and connect their new digital
controls to the facility’s network. Throughout the project, McKenney’s
adhered to base protocols for security.

5. The Results
The facility can now begin to realize energy savings by identifying
mechanical issues, keeping systems within range and only operating
systems when buildings are in use.
