What You Can Do To Prepare for This Summer’s Pilot Energy Conservation Program

As the campus prepares for the role out of our Summer Pilot Energy Conservation Program, you can assist the Facilities Department in preparing the building cooling and ventilation systems in the following ways:

Offices and Area Suites:

• Make sure the heat is off in your office by turning the Danfoss valve to 0, if you have one.
• Set your thermostat to 76 F.
  • Please note: Extreme settings on thermostats (like 55 F)  tend to disrupt the controls.
• Report any temperature or ventilation issues promptly by submitting a work order through the SchoolDude link or by calling the Facilities Office at 216.397.4314.
• Keep your windows closed. This will help maintain temperature and humidity levels throughout the building.
• Close blinds and shades to reduce direct sunlight and heat gain into your work area.
• Turn off your lights when not needed and at the end of the day.
• Please turn off/unplug personal appliances during Demand Response Events.
• Do not adjust thermostats in common areas, lounges, and restrooms.

Classrooms and Laboratories:

• Make sure the heat is off by turning the Danfoss valve to 0, if there is one.
• Set the thermostat to 76 F.
• Please note: Extreme settings on thermostats (like 55 F) tend to disrupt the controls.
• Keep the windows closed. This will help maintain temperature and humidity levels throughout the building.
• Close blinds and shades to reduce direct sunlight and heat gain into the area.
• Turn off the lights and projector when not needed and at the end of the day.
• Keep fume hood sashes closed, except when necessary during experiments.
