Comfort at every occupancy level
Commercial Office & Retail
HVAC is 40 to 50% of a building's energy bill (industry data), and hybrid schedules mean your equipment is sized for an occupancy that rarely shows up. A variable capacity enhancement for standard DX systems or heat pumps, APR Control matches capacity to the occupancy you actually have, floor by floor, hour by hour.

Why APR Control fits commercial office & retail
Sized for design day. Modulating for Tuesday at 40% occupancy.
- Hybrid-era loads run 30–60% of design: without APR Control, RTUs cycle through all of it
- Fewer hot and cold calls: steadier zones through arrival, lunch, and departures
- Protects the CapEx plan: fewer high-stress starts defer five-figure compressor replacements
- APR Control plus a supply-fan VFD may improve part-load performance and cut fan energy 40–60%, where properly applied
- No impact on the unit's rated capacity during design day conditions
