Explore the Many Benefits of a Building Automation System
Commercial Automation Systems Increase Efficiency While Reducing Costs
If installed and programmed correctly, a building automation system delivers lower operating and maintenance costs, greater energy efficiency, and better indoor air quality while increasing productivity as well as your staff’s and clients’ comfort.
To accomplish this, AV Specialists partners with industry leaders that remain on the cutting edge of technology. In commercial automation, that brand is Crestron, a recognized worldwide in building automation. Together, we’re transforming businesses and organizations in Clearwater, FL, and the surrounding areas.

Crestron’s Capabilities
Through strategic planning and integration, a Crestron commercial automation system lets you manage, monitor, and control the connected technology throughout an entire facility or across multiple properties. A few of the easily managed systems include audio-video distribution, presentation systems, HVAC, blinds, lighting, and security—and all from one user-friendly interface.
Operators, managers, and owners experience this seamless integration in a building that adjusts these automated systems throughout the day, creating an efficient, autonomous facility. Users can also control the system through in-wall stations or allow the system to self-modulate via occupancy and vacancy sensors, daylight sensors, and automatic color tuning sensors that adjust the indoor lighting to the changing color temperature of the sun.
Then, at the end of the day, the security lights turn on while the security system arms and the HVAC system adjusts to the perfect temperature.
Integrated Audio & Video
You can also integrate video conferencing tools, boosting collaboration and creating remote workforce solutions. These systems include high-definition video, crystal-clear audio, and state-of-the-art real-time collaboration tools, such as digital whiteboards.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
According to the EPA, offices and other large buildings have significant air pollution sources that are made worse due to inadequate ventilation. The concentrations of some pollutants are 2-5 times higher than in outdoor environments.
A smart climate control system reports real-time data about the conditions for all systems responsible for airflow. As a result, HVAC systems provide adequate ventilation by automatically adjusting outdoor air dampers and climate controls. As a result, better ventilation and air quality improve productivity for your entire staff.
Reducing Energy Costs
By monitoring building occupancy and adjusting various systems automatically, users can save 10-30% on utility bills. This is particularly true in buildings where HVAC systems run at high capacity to maintain a comfortable indoor environment. In addition, building automation systems gather data and use advanced analytics platforms to make adjustments based on the number of people in a room while offering recommendations for improving efficiency.
