Building Automation Controls for Smarter Facilities

Modern facilities need more than standalone thermostats and timeclocks; they need a connected controls platform that keeps HVAC running efficiently, consistently, and predictably. Peters Mechanical designs and deploys building automation systems that centralize control of your heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment so you always know what’s happening in your building β€” and can act on it fast.

  • Centralized control of all major HVAC equipment from one interface.

  • Real-time monitoring and alarming for critical conditions and failures.​

  • Optimized control strategies that reduce energy waste and operating costs.​

  • Commercial and industrial focus across facilities in Connecticut.

Why Smart Building Automation Pays Owners Back Fast

10–30% less spent on maintenance and service calls.

Up to 15–30% lower energy use and utility costs.

Typical payback period of 2–5 years on automation investments.

What You Get With Our Automation Systems

We tailor each controls project to your building, existing equipment, and operational priorities.

  • Rooftop units, air handlers, boilers, chillers, VAVs, ERVs, and exhaust fans tied into a unified automation platform.

  • Secure, browser-based access to trends, schedules, alarms, and setpoints from any authorized device

  • Occupancy-based scheduling, optimal start/stop, and temperature reset sequences to improve comfort while cutting waste

  • Automated alerts for temperature excursions, equipment faults, and abnormal run conditions so you can respond before tenants complain or equipment fails.

  • Comprehensive building automation support focused on fast service, expert repairs, preventative BAS contracts, and fixing poorly designed control systems to restore performance and reliability.

Benefits for Owners, Facility Managers, and Tenants

A well-designed building automation system creates value for everyone who touches your facility β€” from ownership and finance to maintenance and the people in the space.​

  • Lower operating and energy costs
    Reduce unnecessary runtime, catch issues early, and support future efficiency upgrades.

  • Fewer comfort complaints
    Stable temperatures, better air quality, and faster issue resolution improve occupant satisfaction.

  • Better visibility and control
    Know what’s running, where, and why β€” whether you manage one building or multiple locations.

  • Longer equipment life
    Smarter sequencing and proactive maintenance reduce wear and unplanned downtime.

Example: Instead of waiting for a rooftop unit to fail on a hot August afternoon, trending and alarms can highlight abnormal operation days or weeks in advance, so you can schedule repairs on your terms.​

Service, Repair, and BAS Support You Can Rely On

Most of our building automation work today is on the service and repair side, where fast response and clear communication matter most. We troubleshoot, repair, and optimize existing BAS and control systems so you get the performance and reliability you expected in the first place. That includes correcting poorly designed or improperly programmed control strategies that are driving up energy costs, causing comfort issues, or creating constant nuisance alarms.

We also offer ongoing BAS service contracts to keep your system tuned, updated, and documented. With scheduled inspections, remote diagnostics, and priority response, you maintain stable operation, fewer surprises, and a clear plan for upgrades. As we continue to grow our controls team, we are expanding into more full BAS installations and retrofits, giving owners a single partner for design, install, and long-term service.
