Episode 322 ControlTalk NOW — The HVAC and Smart Building Controls VideoCast and Podcast. First 10 Readers/Listeners that send sshaw@sierramonitor.com an Email that Ken and Eric Sent you Win a Free Oil Field Cameo Hat!

CTN 322 Note from Eric:

On this Episode of ControlTalk NOW, Ken and I talk about the amazing demonstration of what is possible in Smart Buildings today and in the future. There has been a lot of discussion about what can be accomplished when a committed  smart buildings team maximizes the integration of HVAC, IoT, Lighting, Access and Security, Tenant services, and Business Systems, and yet, until we attended the Distech’s “Unified Project of the Year” award presented to the District Center in Washington D.C. this past Friday, Ken and I have never witnessed a fully functional Smart Building — that seamlessly integrated all of these systems.

As you will hear on the show, it was inspiring. Congratulations to Jones, Lang, and LaSalle; Acuity Brands; Distech Controls; SMART Building Technologies; and all the other team members who made this “Unified Project of the Year” award happen.
