<br /> <br /> <br />Recommissioning, brought to you by Conservation Wise from Xcel Energy'''', is <br />similar to a "tune-up" for your building's existing mechanical systems. When your <br />building was new, the systems and equipment were new and in top condition. <br />As your building ages and as personnel changes, key equipment may be running <br />differently or less efficiently than in the past. In addition, systems may have <br />been inadvertently modified during remodeling or tenant-finish projects. All of this <br />means you could be losing money to unintended inefficiencies. You can get your <br />building back in shape with help from our Recommissioning program. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommissioning your facility is a two-step process, diagnosis and implementation: <br /> <br />1. Diagnosis <br /> <br />Xcel Energy will provide a study rebate <br />for up to 50 percent of the cost of a recom- <br />missioning study, notto exceed $15,000, <br />to review the conditions of the existing <br />mechanical systems in your facility. The writ- <br />ten study includes recommendations, based <br />on the diagnostic assessment, and details <br />how best to return your building's current <br />mechanical systems to peak efficiency. You <br />can select your own contractor, or choose <br />from our list of providers who have completed <br />a study in the past. Xcel Energy will review <br /> <br />the study pre-approval application and <br />proposal, and determine what level of <br />study rebate we will provide. <br />2. Implementation <br />Earn electric and natural gas rebates, up to <br />half of the cost of implementing recom- <br />mended changes. You also will realize ongo- <br />ing energy savings over the life of your <br />equipment and building systems. In addition, <br />Recommissioining provides education for <br />your staff and guidance for maintaining the <br />efficiency of your building's mechanical <br />systems. <br /> <br />Because energy loss fi'om inefficient systems and worn equipment is often difficult to <br />detect, the value of Recommissioning can be underestimated. However, customers <br />typically see 5 percent to 15 percent potential reductions in their energy costs. <br />Although most buildings can benefit from Recommissioning, the ideal building is <br />more than five years old, and has functional large mechanical systems and controls <br />that do not need replacement. <br /> <br />Additional benefits of our Recomissioning program for your facility include: <br /> <br />. Longer equipment life, which saves the cost <br />of premature equipment replacement <br />. Reduced maintenance and repair costs due <br />to longer equipment life and more efficient <br />use of systems <br /> <br />. A more comfortable and productive environ- <br />ment for tenants and employees, due to <br />better air circulation, improved air quality, <br />temperature control, etc. <br />. Financial incentives, which can offset the <br />cost of making efficiency improvements. <br /> <br />When your facility is running at its peak performance, your business gains <br />a competitive edge because your equipment and your staff are operating at <br />maximum efficiency. <br /> <br />
