What connected buildings have that others don’t.
1. Better backup plans
Modern connectivity enables proactive downtime prevention with capabilities like remote monitoring, automated system alarms, app-based management, and early-detection analytics.
2. Stronger cyber security
Cloud-connected systems provide enhanced security, with diligent providers who are constantly combatting the latest cyber threats.
3. Sustainability/energy management tools
Connected systems enable analytics that measure current energy use, guide improvement actions, and measure results.
4. Productivity advantages
Building run smoothly with less dedicated staff by automating tasks like system scheduling.
5. More human-centric environments
Contemporary systems manage indoor environments with greater sophistication. They can pinpoint where and when people are in the building to optimize temperature, humidity and ventilation.
Most HVAC equipment up to 15 years old is connectivity ready—or at least close to it. Trane can assess your building and tell you what it will take to get up to speed. It may be easier than you think, and longer you wait the more your building will fall behind.

What HVAC Technicians Need to Know about the Refrigerant Transition
Familiar refrigerants, including R-410A and R-134A for chillers, are being phased out in newly manufactured equipment, with next-generation, low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants becoming the new reality. Discover how Trane can help you prepare for these new refrigerants by boosting confidence with facts, recognizing what is changing and what is not, learning new handling processes and leak detection and site modifications, and practicing safe storage and transportation.
