Seamlessly unify lighting, HVAC, and shading systems for smarter, more efficient spaces. MACC delivers advanced Total Room Automation (TRA) solutions that centralize control, reduce energy waste, and enhance occupant comfort across complex facilities.
What is Total Room Automation?
Total room automation is a centralized solution that combines HVAC, lighting, shading, and environmental controls for smarter, more efficient building management. It’s well-suited for hospitals, laboratories, data centers, and large commercial spaces, where consistent comfort, efficiency, and responsiveness to occupancy and usage patterns are essential.
By uniting disparate building systems under a single interface, facility managers can automate room-level settings to reduce manual input, boost energy efficiency, and maintain consistent comfort. Room automation also enables real-time monitoring and analytics, providing the insights necessary for smarter, data-driven decision-making.
