Hot Feedback Identifies Imbalance in Airflow
This comment from an enthusiastic TherMOOstat user prompted our team to take a look into the thermostat settings for this office in the Human Resources Building.
Intro
We discovered a row of offices in the Human Resources building had poor temperature control. Through a site visit, we found the vent in one of the offices was closed, causing the air to flow into the next-door office.
Resolution
We manually adjusted the vents and communicated with the occupants to fix the issue. At the end of our site visit, we left data loggers in the room to confirm a change in temperatures.
