Guests have certain expectations when they check into a hotel. They expect a clean, quiet room, good customer service and the ultimate level of comfort. Because a hotel is a 24\/7 operation, energy efficiency in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) is one important way to get started on developing a sustainable, high-performance building while at the same time maintain guest comfort in any hospitality facility<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Higher Energy Efficiency Means More Comfort and More Savings<\/h2>\n

Energy efficiency is a smart business practice that improves ROI, benefits the community<\/a> and conserves natural resources. By making the choice to use sustainable architecture, energy consumption will ultimately decrease thus lowering operating costs. Considering a typical hotel room is vacant roughly 70% of an average day\u2013 a large percentage of energy used to heat and cool those spaces can be wasted on empty rooms alone. Check out our recent blog post on the importance of Sustainable Building Design [INFOGRAPHIC]<\/a> for more great insight on how our engineers can help by greening the design of your commercial industrial building.<\/p>\n

Energy and resource efficient, eco- friendly designs are beneficial to the community and environment, socially responsible and thus well received, and often the most economical and best operational choice for our clients. Whether you\u2019re controlling the climate for an individual guest room, lobby, restaurant<\/a> or spa area, a comfortable and welcoming environment \u2013 that\u2019s also energy efficient – is critical to the success of any hotel.<\/p>\n

Below are just a few ways to get started on developing a sustainable, high-performance building:<\/p>\n

LED to LEED<\/h3>\n

There are many green initiatives a hotel business can implement from using LED lighting to achieving a LEED<\/a> (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) green building certification for your hotel. Buildings can also incorporate occupancy sensors to control lighting as well as the use of architectural daylighting<\/a> into their green building checklist<\/a> to save money without sacrificing guest comfort.<\/p>\n

Solar<\/h3>\n

Incorporate solar power<\/a> to save on energy costs. Based on your needs, Lexodant Solar Technologycan provide designs and engineering services for rooftop, canopy or ground mount installations.<\/p>\n

Lexodant Solar Technology Design<\/h3>\n

Efficient mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) designs (including HVAC improvements) can reduce energy usage and costs to operate a facility. Variable refrigerant flow<\/a> (VFR) is just one example of a high efficiency MEP system that benefits buildings with varying loads and with different zones such as hotels, schools and office buildings.<\/p>\n

Commercial HVAC Upgrade<\/h3>\n

Through commercial HVAC upgrade<\/a> and improvements, Lexodant Solar Technology<\/a> uses its extensive engineering experience to design modifications to existing systems or add additional systems that will reduce energy usage and costs to operate the facility.<\/p>\n

Energy Efficient Hospitality System Designs<\/h2>\n

We understand that guest satisfaction is the number one priority. Thus, creating \u2018green\u2019 sustainable systems that will enhance guest comfort and demonstrate your commitment to offer energy efficient hospitality is important. Our philosophy<\/a> at Lexodant Solar Technologyis first to understand, then provide appropriate solutions and designs, not born out of our personal preferences, but incorporating experience from previous successful projects, that align with our clients\u2019 desires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Guests have certain expectations when they check into a hotel.
