AI-Driven HVAC Optimization on Top of Any BAS

EcoPilot uses AI to optimize HVAC performance in commercial, multi-residential, public, and senior living buildings without a major retrofit. EcoPilot layers onto your existing BAS—Metasys, Desigo, Delta, ALC, Alerton, Distech, Trane, Niagara N4—to deliver continuous, measurable savings without rewriting code. Win more projects, add recurring optimization revenue, and prove results with built-in M&V.

Unlock smarter HVAC optimization with AI — layered seamlessly on top of your BAS.

Why BAS Integrators Partner with EcoPilot

• Differentiate with AI-driven HVAC optimization layered on top of your BAS

• Deliver measurable energy savings (typical 20–30%) and fast ROI

• Works with your existing BAS (BACnet-enabled)

• Proven savings across 1,000+ buildings (update to your real number)

• Commercial, multi-residential, public, and senior living portfolios

• Performance-based model: pay from savings, not upfront

Platforms & Protocols We Support

EcoPilot AI transforms the value of existing Building Automation Systems (BAS) by enhancing HVAC control. While a BAS provides centralized monitoring and automation, EcoPilot’s iBOS® Energy software optimizes those controls in real time, every two minutes, using advanced data inputs your BAS doesn’t account for. The result: 25% average HVAC energy savings, improved comfort, and reduced operator workload — with no disruption to your existing infrastructure.

• Protocols: BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA

• BAS platforms: Johnson Controls Metasys, Siemens Desigo, Honeywell, Schneider EcoStruxure, Delta Controls, Reliable Controls, Automated Logic, Alerton, Distech, Trane Tracer, Niagara N4, and more.

Why BAS Integrators Partner with EcoPilot

As a BAS integrator, you already provide clients with centralized control for HVAC, lighting, and security. EcoPilot helps you:

• Differentiate your offerings with AI-driven HVAC optimization

• Deliver measurable energy savings and ROI for clients

• Reduce tenant hot/cold complaints through stabilized comfort

• Add new revenue opportunities through ongoing software services

• Strengthen long-term client relationships with proven performance

How Building Automation Systems, Analytics Tools, and BAS with EcoPilot: A Side-by-Side Comparison

Doesn’t my BAS Already Do That?

BAS excels at centralized monitoring and automation, but optimization is often limited to strategies like Outdoor Air Reset or Trim & Respond. EcoPilot goes further by factoring in balance point temperature, indoor comfort sensors, thermal mass, and weather forecasts to proactively adjust HVAC setpoints every two minutes.

What does a BAS do vs. what does EcoPilot do?

• BAS: Centralizes control of HVAC that uses Schedules, Outdoor Air Reset, or Trim & Respond.

• EcoPilot iBOS® Energy: Continuously recalculates optimal HVAC setpoints using balance point temperature, weather forecasts, and thermal dynamics that are delivering ongoing optimization with no operator action required.

What EcoPilot iBOS® Energy Actually Does

EcoPilot is not a replacement for your BAS, it’s a layer on top of your existing BAS. EcoPilot seamlessly integrates with all major Building Automation Systems (BAS), including Johnson Controls Metasys, Siemens Desigo, Honeywell, Schneider Electric EcoStruxure, Delta Controls, Reliable Controls, Automated Logic, Alerton, Distech, Trane Tracer, and more. By layering directly onto your existing BAS, EcoPilot enhances HVAC performance, improves tenant comfort, and delivers up to 30% average energy savings without replacing your current system.

• BAS continues running fans, pumps, and sequences of operations.

• EcoPilot only writes to select points (HVAC temperature setpoints and enable/disable commands).

• All safeties and overrides remain fully in place.

• If EcoPilot is offline, the BAS takes over as usual.

Think of EcoPilot as the “AI GPS” for HVAC systems, guiding your BAS to smarter, more efficient decisions.

What About Analytics Tools?

Tools like SkySpark and CopperTree Analytics deliver valuable insights by identifying inefficiencies, faults, and opportunities. However, they stop at diagnosis and require operators to act on recommendations.

EcoPilot is different:

• Analytics = “Here’s what’s wrong, go fix it.”

• EcoPilot = Fixes it automatically.

By integrating EcoPilot, you move from insight-driven to action-driven results, without increasing operator workload.

Results in Action

• Average 30% HVAC energy reduction

• Rebates available through provincial Pay for Performance programs across Canada

• Stabilized comfort, fewer hot/cold complaints

• Reduced operator workload

• Verified performance reporting

FAQ Section

Frequently Asked Questions

Does EcoPilot replace our existing Building Automation System (BAS)?
A: No. EcoPilot is an AI optimization layer that works on top of your existing BAS. We read data from your BAS, calculate optimized setpoints, and write those setpoints back into the system. Your BAS remains in control of sequences and safety, and your team retains full override capability.

Which types of buildings are the best fit for EcoPilot?
A: EcoPilot is designed for commercial office buildings, multi-residential properties, public and institutional facilities, and senior living communities, especially where HVAC is a major contributor to energy costs and comfort issues.

What data and infrastructure do we need for EcoPilot to work?
A: You need a BAS that supports open communication (such as BACnet) and provides access to key HVAC points and indoor climate data. A stable network connection is required for data exchange, analytics, and optimization.

How quickly can we see results?
A: After integration and initial tuning, buildings typically begin to see optimizations within weeks. Verified energy savings are usually evaluated over the first full heating or cooling season to account for weather and operating conditions.

Will EcoPilot affect occupant comfort?
A: EcoPilot operates within comfort ranges agreed with your operations team. In many buildings, comfort actually improves because temperatures become more stable and better aligned with real conditions.
