The following Wasser Resource technologies qualify for natural gas incentives:

Autani Wireless Retrofit Building Control Systems

Autani building controls enable facility managers to dramatically reduce gas consumption through the use of intelligent thermostats and room heating systems each supplied with two way communication antennas that can enable building management to respond to changes in the amount of heat to be provided to each room or zone. In addition, the Autani Energy Manager Control system allows management to schedule the heating of rooms throughout a building. Finally, occupancy controls can further refine the control of the heating system by reducing heating provided to vacant rooms and building zones.

Freight Door & Pedestrian Door Air Curtains

Air curtains prevent the loss of building heat throughout the winter each time a pedestrian or freight door opens. In addition, air curtains reduce the infiltration of snow and other precipitation, dramatically reduce the risk of slip and fall accidents, a major winter hazard. Most gas utilities provide generous air curtain incentives based on entry door sizes.
