Healthier Air. Zero Waste.
How a modern office building automated indoor air quality with CO2-triggered fresh air, occupancy-based air purifiers, and smart recycling monitoring—saving 28% on energy while achieving a 92% employee satisfaction score.
Energy waste meets poor air quality
The facilities team faced a classic dilemma: running HVAC and air purifiers 24/7 was expensive, but turning them off led to stuffy air and employee complaints. Manual recycling collection was inefficient, and sustainability reporting was a nightmare of spreadsheets.
Running even when office is empty
No connection to occupancy
Half-empty bins collected, full bins overflow
Intelligent automation. Sustainable by design.
We deployed 6 IoT systems connected to Smart Workflows—automatically maintaining perfect air quality and optimizing energy consumption based on real-time conditions.
CO2-Triggered Fresh Air
Smart CO2 sensors automatically control fresh air handling units (FAF/AHU), bringing in outside air only when needed—maintaining air quality while minimizing energy waste.
Occupancy-Based Air Purifiers
Room occupancy sensors detect when spaces are in use and automatically activate air purifiers, ensuring clean air for employees without running 24/7.
Smart Recycling Monitoring
Fill-level sensors in recycling bins throughout the office track capacity in real-time, optimizing collection routes and supporting sustainability reporting.
Energy Monitoring
Integration with Easy.io BMS provides real-time energy consumption data for HVAC, lighting, and equipment—identifying waste and tracking sustainability goals.
Temperature & Humidity
Maintain optimal comfort conditions throughout the office with automated HVAC adjustments based on real-time sensor data and occupancy patterns.
Meeting Room Optimization
Track meeting room utilization, pre-condition spaces before scheduled meetings, and auto-reset HVAC after sessions end for energy efficiency.
CO2 rises. Fresh air flows. Automatically.
Our CO2 sensors continuously monitor air quality throughout the office. When levels exceed 800ppm (indicating poor ventilation), the system automatically increases fresh air intake through the AHU—then scales back when levels normalize, saving energy while maintaining perfect air quality.
Energy saving mode - CO2 levels optimal
Running only in occupied rooms
Meeting Room 1
AHU increased to 60%
Floor 8 → Floor 5 → Floor 3 (3 stops, 12 min estimated)
Smart recycling. Measurable impact.
Fill-level sensors in every recycling bin monitor capacity in real-time. When bins reach 80% full, an automatic work order creates an optimized collection route—no more overflowing bins or wasted trips to half-empty ones.
Automatic work orders. Zero manual effort.
Every sensor is connected to Smart Workflows that automatically create, route, and escalate work orders based on real-time conditions.
CO2 > 1000ppm in open office area
Increase AHU fresh air intake to 100%, create air quality work order if not resolved in 30 minutes, notify facilities manager
Recycling bin > 85% capacity
Auto-create collection work order, assign to cleaning crew, add to optimized route, update sustainability dashboard
Room occupied but air purifier offline
Attempt remote restart, create maintenance work order if failed, notify occupants of alternative spaces
Energy consumption 150% above baseline for 2+ hours
Alert energy manager, create investigation work order, auto-check HVAC schedules for anomalies
The Results Speak for Themselves
12 months of smart office operation
"The smart office automation is what sold us. Fresh air kicks in when CO2 goes up, air purifiers turn on based on occupancy, even our recycling bins get monitored. We've cut energy costs by 28% and employee satisfaction scores have never been higher. It's sustainability that actually works."
