What we integrate
Your site may have a mix of new and older equipment. We connect the pieces so they talk and act in sync.
Equipment we handle
- Rooftop units and split systems
- Heat pumps and package units
- Variable air volume boxes and zone dampers
- Boilers chillers pumps and fan coils
- Dedicated outside air units and make up air units
- Energy recovery ventilators and economizers

Controls and protocols we speak
- BACnet IP and BACnet MS TP
- Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU
- LonWorks
- Niagara N4 platforms and common vendor systems from Tridium Honeywell Johnson Controls Siemens and Distech
- Cloud gateways and secure remote access options
If your gear is not on a modern network we can retrofit control boards sensors and variable frequency drives. We create a unified front end so your team can schedule trend and command equipment from anywhere with permission.
Sensors and devices we add
- Temperature and humidity sensors
- CO2 sensors for demand control ventilation
- Particulate sensors for smoke and dust days
- Occupancy sensors to match airflow to real use
- Static pressure and differential pressure sensors
- Smart thermostats where a full BMS is not needed including commercial thermostat installation
Our integration process
1. Discovery and site survey
- Walkthrough of your building and roof
- Review of equipment names ages and conditions
- Pull of any drawings or previous controls graphics if available
- Data spot checks with handheld tools
- Chat with your facilities team about daily headaches and goals
We also note local needs. Salt air near Point Loma can be hard on rooftop gear. Older buildings in the Gaslamp Quarter may have mixed wiring and pneumatic parts. Warehouses in Otay Mesa might need smart fan control across large open areas.
2. Plan and sequence of operations
We write a plain English sequence that fits your building. This is the rulebook your system follows. It covers
- Schedules and setpoints by zone
- Cooling heating and economizer logic
- Demand control ventilation with CO2 setpoints
- Fan speed damper position and valve control
- Supply air temperature reset
- Static pressure reset for VAVs
- Alarm thresholds and who gets notified
You will see how the system responds during mornings occupied hours nights and weekends. We also include special cases like a hot day pre cool plan or a smoke day outside air limit.
3. Hardware and wiring
- Install of controllers VFDs sensors and gateways
- Neat conduit and labeling for fast service later
- Panel layout that makes sense to your team
- Safe work practices on rooftops and in mechanical rooms
- Coordination with your IT team if network ports or VLANs are needed
4. Programming and graphics
We program controllers to match the sequence. We build screen graphics that match your floor plan and rooftop layout. You will see each unit its sensors and its current mode at a glance. No hunting through endless menus.
5. Commissioning and testing
- Point to point checks
- Functional tests across typical modes
- Trend logs to prove sequences are working
- Economizer function under cool morning air
- Demand control ventilation using live CO2 readings
- Alarm tests and notification checks
6. Training and handoff
Your team gets hands on time with the system. We walk through screen views schedules overrides alarms and basic troubleshooting. We provide a quick reference guide that fits on a single page plus a longer digital manual.
7. Ongoing support and optimization
We can host remote monitoring. We can also visit quarterly or seasonally for tune ups updates and small adjustments after you see real world use patterns. Need help during a heat wave or a smoke day Call us for commercial emergency HVAC services.
Energy savings and comfort you can feel
You do not need a huge capital project to shrink energy use. The right control sequence often pays back fast.
Control strategies that save money
- Schedules that follow your tenant or staff hours
- Optimal start and stop to reach setpoints without running early
- Economizer free cooling during cool mornings and nights
- Demand control ventilation to match outside air to actual occupancy
- VFDs on supply and return fans to avoid full speed operation
- Static pressure reset so fans slow down when zones are satisfied
- Supply air temperature reset to reduce compressor run time
- Hot water and chilled water reset for hydronic systems
- Alarms that spot stuck dampers failing sensors and short cycling
San Diego buildings often see good gains from economizers. Cool marine air in La Jolla or Point Loma can handle morning cooling for free. Inland sites in El Cajon or Escondido still benefit on many days. During smoke events we can cap outside air to keep it safe and increase filtration for a cleaner indoors.

Demand response and SDG&E programs
Peak rates can sting. We can set up demand response modes that pre cool or pre heat then trim load during peak windows. SDG&E offers incentives for certain control upgrades and for retro commissioning. We help you find and apply for available programs. Learn more about demand response on Wikipedia.
Maintenance made easier
- Trend logs help you catch issues early
- Automated fault detection for economizers and fans
- Alerts for high discharge air temps failed sensors or short cycling
- Service notes right in the system so nothing gets lost
Your team will get fewer comfort calls. When a call does come in a quick look at the dashboard shows what is going on. Plan ahead with commercial HVAC maintenance for continued performance.
Air quality and duct health go hand in hand
Sky Clean Air began by helping local buildings with cleaner ducts and better airflow. That experience pairs nicely with controls integration.
Cleaner air with smart control
- CO2 based ventilation that matches real occupancy
- Outside air control that responds to smoke days
- MERV 13 or higher filtration upgrades for many systems
- UV C air treatment in air handlers where it makes sense supported by UV air purifier installation
- Humidity control strategies that keep spaces comfortable
We also inspect ductwork diffusers and returns. A dirty or restricted duct can undo all the good work of a smart control system. If you need commercial duct cleaning or duct sealing we can handle that at the same time. One team less downtime. For airflow tuning ask about airflow balancing.

Need help dialing in schedules and setpoints We can assist with commercial thermostat programming and HVAC control setup.
Title 24 and local compliance
California Title 24 has rules for commercial HVAC controls. Many rooftop units need economizers with fault detection. Some spaces need demand control ventilation. Acceptance testing is often required. We plan your integration with these rules in mind and coordinate with the right parties to keep your project moving. We also help gather the data you need for permit closeout. Learn more from the California Energy Commission on the Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards page.
We know the local scene. From Oceanside to Imperial Beach each city has its own process and timing. We keep your project on a clear path.
Budget ROI and incentives
Every building is different so we start with a simple question. What problem are you trying to solve right now
- Fix comfort and cut waste in a small office with a few rooftop units
