Switching automation of both lights and HVAC or lights and fans can provide significant energy savings and improve occupant comfort in buildings. In the case of light and HVAC automation, occupancy sensors can be used to detect when people are in a room or area and adjust the temperature accordingly. When the room is vacant for a certain amount of time, the HVAC system can be programmed to turn off or adjust to an energy-saving mode. Similarly, in the case of light and fan automation, occupancy sensors can be used to detect when people are in a room or area and turn on the fan accordingly.
By combining light and HVAC or light and fan automation, buildings can achieve significant energy savings by reducing the use of lighting and HVAC or fan systems when they are not needed. Additionally, this automation can improve occupant comfort and convenience by ensuring that the environment is always comfortable and well-lit when people are present.
