    Buildings Frequently Asked Questions

    What are the benefits of having a connected building? (What’s the benefit of connecting your building to the cloud?)

    Siloed building systems often means siloed data making it difficult to analyze data insights and achieve optimal performance. A connected building allows companies to integrate systems, leverage scalable processing capabilities in the cloud, and gain essential insights across systems. It enables smarter workflows by connecting systems within one ecosystem, allowing contextualized data to flow seamlessly for more informed decision making.

    How can buildings better manage how much energy they use?

    Buildings consume significant amounts of energy. Depending on the geographic location, heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting and other building systems can account for about three-fourths of a typical facility’s total environmental footprint, compared to around 25% attributed to construction-related activities.1 Leveraging building management systems (BMS) and advanced software controls can help building operators optimize HVAC systems, boilers, chillers, sensor networks, and lighting systems to help meet energy use goals. Advanced software solutions can help control, manage and optimize energy use to help manage costs and improve resilience.

    Why is it important for commercial buildings to have a building management system (BMS)?

    A building management system (BMS), or building controllers, are used to manage building assets like heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), boilers, chillers, lighting, security, fire and more. These systems automate processes and regulate equipment performance to help deliver precise, consistent and efficient operations. A BMS is often thought of the “brains” of a building – these separate, external systems interpret data from sensors, send commands to equipment, enable functions like motor speed, automate the sequencing of complex tasks and make real-time adjustments to maintain desired conditions. Like the human brain, these small but mighty systems enable complex tasks in a building.

    What is the potential advantage of using advanced smoke detection solutions?

    For smoke detection systems to work properly, smoke must travel from the source to a sensor at a detectable density. The traditional approach to smoke detection is to place sensors near, or on, the ceiling, because smoke rises. Advanced smoke detection solutions, or aspirating smoke detectors, continuously sample the air to provide very early warning of impending fire hazards and help detect threats before they escalate. These devices often have a wide sensitivity range to identify even the smallest amount of smoke in the air, helping prevent even a small fire from causing irreparable damage. Advanced detection technologies can be placed in strategically targeted locations – often in combination with traditional detectors – to continuously monitor for trace amounts of smoke. This way, potential fires are intercepted at the source. These solutions are well suited for a variety of buildings including data centers, warehouses, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, healthcare facilities and more.

    What is a self-testing smoke detector?

    Self-testing smoke detectors automatically perform maintenance tests for smoke and heat detection without using canned smoke or heat guns when used with a compatible fire alarm control panel (FACP). Importantly, a self-testing smoke detector, like those from Honeywell, helps eliminate many of the physical barriers during test and maintenance such as locked rooms, high ceilings and other hard-to-access spaces – areas that may go untested, which can ultimately put buildings at risk. The detectors introduce small amounts of heat and smoke into their own detection chambers, testing both the photo and thermal sensors as well as verifying that smoke entry points are free of obstruction.

    Let’s talk about how to go beyond building control with automation.
