Onset releases Facility Manager's Guide to Data Logging

The energy required to operate buildings in the United States is the largest sector of our energy use, representing about 40% of U.S. energy demand. Measuring building performance can help facility staff better manage this energy use. A new 30-page best practices guide from Onset, The Facility Manager's Guide to Data Logging, discusses monitoring strategies and techniques that can be utilized by building professionals looking to reduce energy use and optimize performance of their facilities. The guide covers measurement approaches for a variety of building systems including lighting, HVAC, indoor air quality, and plug loads, in addition to methods for quantifying savings. A free copy of the guide can be downloaded at www.onsetcomp.com/FMG. Onset is one of the world's leading suppliers of data loggers.
