December 20, 2007- Cimetrics announced today that the Lewiston, Maine school district has chosen the Infometrics ongoing commissioning service for the critical task of reducing energy consumption and ensuring excellent indoor air quality for its students. Improved facility efficiency will mean reduced spending on energy, which will in turn protect vital resources for Lewiston's students. In essence, money saved can be spent educating kids.

Infometrics was brought into Lewiston's newest K-12 school to find hidden building system problems while they were still covered under warranty, ensuring greater efficiency and minimizing costs. And because Infometrics offers continuous monitoring and analysis, issues will be discovered in every season on an ongoing basis, offering reduced lifecycle costs.

Ongoing commissioning is the process of monitoring and optimizing building systems 24/7/365 to ensure that they are working at peak efficiency and comfort. The Infometrics continuous remote commissioning service enables reductions in energy use and carbon emissions while providing powerful enterprise-wide facility information. Infometrics reports deliver prioritized issue lists with recommendations which, when implemented, result in more efficient, comfortable, and reliable buildings. Without up-front capital costs, Infometrics helps reduce inefficiencies in existing building systems, a strategy which cuts energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Infometrics keeps "green" buildings operating properly, and enables the "greening" of older buildings, all the while providing key information for staff and vendor management. Infometrics detects hidden faults and inefficiencies, empowering facility managers to embrace predictive maintenance and avoid catastrophic failures.

Cutting-Edge Technology For Remote Ongoing Commissioning

Infometrics is the leading service for remote monitoring and ongoing commissioning of building systems. An Infometrics program provides powerful algorithm-based analysis of continuously collected building automation data. Valuable unbiased periodic reports enable clients to optimize efficiency and comfort, lower maintenance costs, and effectively manage facility staff and contractors while reducing energy consumption.

Infometrics Reduces Energy Use, Maintenance Costs and CO2 Emissions

Infometrics recommendations optimize mechanical and operational efficiency, catching potential problems before they become noticeable and keeping systems running smoothly and efficiently. The information provided enables proactive rather than reactive system maintenance, minimizing costly downtime and extending equipment life. Using secure Internet transmission, Infometrics can upload and analyze the performance of multiple vendors' equipment, anywhere in the world. And Infometrics reports can quantify CO2 emissions reductions and calculate the annual energy cost of each problem.
