i-Vu® Weather Add-On License; Hourly Forecast

FEATURES

Carrier® i-Vu® add-ons extend the capability of the i-Vu building automation system.

The weather forecasting add-on allows the i-Vu system to communicate with leading forecasting agencies including AccuWeather®, National Weather Service®, and Environment Canada to enable intelligent control strategies based on real-time outside air quality data and ten-day hourly weather forecasts.

These predictive control strategies allow buildings to adapt to unpredictable climate conditions. Air quality information can be used to ensure that unhealthy outside air - such as that caused by wildfires and pollution - remains outside of the building while weather forecasts can be used to optimize energy efficiency indoors and the use of water in irrigation systems outdoors.
