Exception reports highlight metrics that are outside a given threshold. You can use these reports to quickly identify and resolve substantial issues, improve performance of building systems, and pinpoint discrepancies for quality control.

Example scenario: Manage CO2 during extreme events

During extreme events, like forest fires or chemical spills, occurring in a city with multiple facilities, maintaining indoor air quality (IAQ) is crucial for occupant safety. In such situations, you can use an Exceptions report to proactively manage CO2 levels by setting specific thresholds, which allow you to identify areas with compromised IAQ. This approach minimizes risks and helps maintain healthy IAQ during challenging external conditions.

Example scenario: Detect HVAC malfunctions

In a busy office building with numerous HVAC systems, timely identification of malfunctions is crucial to maintaining IAQ and occupant comfort. You can use an Exceptions report to continuously monitor IAQ parameters and system performance. If an HVAC unit begins to underperform, it can lead to increased CO2 levels in a specific area, triggering alerts. You can then quickly address the issue and schedule repairs to ensure uninterrupted IAQ and occupant well-being.
