When you manage a large commercial building, replacing equipment that still works is hard to justify. That was part of the challenge at Two North Riverside Plaza in Chicago. The building was renovated in phases, and its HVAC controls were added and updated at different times. The owners wanted better control and visibility without ripping out systems that still had years of use left. Althoff Industries, Inc. found a way to incorporate the existing controls into the upgrade.
Our team at Althoff Industries, Inc. found a way to bring the old and new controls together without turning the project into a full tear-out. Here’s how we did it, what changed for the building staff, and why the new setup gave Two North Riverside Plaza more flexibility going forward.
