Keeping a commercial building up and running can be costly, especially when it comes to energy costs. Fortunately, there are multiple steps you can take to conserve energy and cut these costs.

Lighting makes up for one of the main energy costs for any commercial building. To save money and energy, make sure that you have updated lights. Older fluorescent lights are not nearly as energy efficient as lights made in the past decade or so. You can also install motion sensor lighting that turns on and off according to movement in your building.

Your HVAC system is another major energy consumer in your commercial building. Keeping your building warm in the winter and cool in the summer is essential, but it can also be costly. If you own a commercial building, you should have the HVAC system regularly cleaned and serviced to keep it in running order. While they are maintaining your HVAC systems, professionals can also check for any damages that need to be repaired to keep your HVAC system running as smoothly as possible.

It’s also a good idea to regularly have your roof serviced. As commercial roofing professionals, we can check for any leaks or holes in your roof that might be letting your warm or cool air escape the building and increasing your energy costs. To protect your building from these costly damages, it’s a great idea to have a protective coating added to your roofing. Not only does this add a protective layer, it also reflects sunlight from your building, helping to further save on energy costs. What’s better than saving energy? Saving energy AND money!
