TUDI Helps Florida’s Water Crisis.

Think about your air conditioning system. A water cooled system uses large amounts of water in the cooling tower to make up for evaporation and drift losses. You as the building owner are paying for this. TUDI has a solution.

The benefits of leasing

Some business owners are hesitant to upgrade their heating and cooling systems because of the high upfront costs. But leasing offers you an opportunity to “buy now” so you can start saving on fuel as soon as possible.

	How old is your boiler? Boilers that are 15 years old or older are considerably less efficient than newer units. As a result, they burn more fuel and cost you more money. In fact the single-most important step you can take to reduce fuel use is replacing your old boiler.
	To cut energy use, look at fans and pumps first. Pumps and fans are the largest source of energy consumption in a typical commercial building; they are also one of the areas you should look at first when trying to reduce energy usage.
	Use “free cooling” to reduce power costs. Cooling with a rooftop unit can be costly, but there’s a way to lower energy bills when the weather permits; it’s called an economizer.
	A range of incentives for business owners. There are many sources of funding designed to help business owners make energy efficient improvements to their properties. In addition to state and federal grants, there are tax credits, rebates, low interest loans and tax deductions based on deprecation. Here are some examples of current incentives for commercial property owners.
	What’s a ‘carbon footprint’ anyway? The term “carbon footprint” isn’t just a buzzword; it refers to the Co2 output of every fuel-burning device, building or machine. Because this term has important implications for every business owner, here are some key points to help familiarize you with the concept.
