Smart Pumps in Commercial Hydronic HVAC Systems
Commercial buildings account for a significant portion of global energy consumption, with HVAC
systems being one of the largest contributors. In hydronic HVAC systems, pumps play a critical role
in circulating water for heating and cooling. Traditionally, these pumps operated at constant speed,
leading to excessive energy use, poor system control, and higher...
