InsideIQ Building Automation Alliance Members Lead in Energy Efficiency
Firms Have Energy Star, LEED Certified Facilities; Share Expertise with Customers
ROCKFORD, Ill., Nov. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Members of the InsideIQ Building Automation Alliance, an international alliance of independent building automation contractors, have extensive experience helping clients improve the energy efficiency and performance of their facilities. Some of that experience is with their own buildings which have achieved the Energy Star rating or Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification.
"InsideIQ firms lead by example by operating energy efficient facilities or through participation in the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and becoming Energy Star Partners," said Frank Rotello, president of the InsideIQ Building Automation Alliance. "This provides us with a depth of knowledge about programs such as LEED and Energy Star which we can share with our customers. Facility operators want to reduce energy costs through improved efficiency and a growing number of municipalities require buildings to meet energy efficiency benchmarks. InsideIQ members can assist facility managers who are unfamiliar with the process of certifying and benchmarking the efficiency of their buildings and lead them successfully through the process."
