Office Buildings are classic areas of application for intelligent building control systems. Element/KNX is ideal for the requirements of modern offices. At the top of the list is employee productivity, which is strongly dependent on the working environment. Element/KNX guarantees optimal shading and a comfortable room temperature, thus making an effective contribution to a good working atmosphere.
Lighting and climate control make up the largest proportion of electrical energy costs in office buildings. Depending on how the system is actually employed, the Element/KNX enables savings of up to 60 % on normal costs. The KNX technology therefore visibly increases the efficiency of your office building - a decisive competitive advantage for tenants or investors. After all, it is essential to position yourself on the market with attractive, efficient properties.
