Abstract: A wireless sensor network at a monitored location can be configured to generate sensor channel(s) of data to assess operational conditions at the monitored location. Inputs based on the sensor channel(s) of data are provided to a host system for analysis of a demand to one or more resources at the monitored location. Response messages can be generated based on the demand analysis and transmitted to actuator(s) at the monitored location to effect an adjustment to the operational conditions.

Abstract: A bathroom exhaust fan switching device for turning on a bathroom exhaust fan automatically upon start of a shower includes a switching module, which can be installed in a bathroom in-line with the bathroom exhaust fan, which is operationally engaged to an electrical circuit. The switching module comprises a transducer, a relay, and a microprocessor. The transducer converts sound into an electrical signal. The relay is operationally engaged to the electrical circuit. The microprocessor, which is operationally engaged to the transducer and the relay, is programmed to recognize a sound signature of a shower in the bathroom to the exclusion of sound signatures of other water fixtures in the bathroom. The microprocessor actuates the relay upon receipt of an electrical signal from the transducer bearing the sound signature of the shower so that the bathroom exhaust fan is powered on to remove moist air from the bathroom.

Abstract: A current load on the AHU used to maintain one or more comfort conditions in the building space is determined, along with a remaining load capacity. A maximum additional fresh air ventilation air flow that could be admitted and conditioned using the remaining load capacity of the AHU such that the AHU could still maintain the one or more comfort conditions in the building space is determined. A fresh air intake damper position for the fresh air intake damper that increases the fresh air ventilation air flow through the fresh air intake damper by a fraction of the maximum additional fresh air ventilation air flow is determined. The fraction may be based at least in part on one or more of a temperature factor and an air quality factor. The fresh air intake damper is set to the determined fresh air intake damper position.

Abstract: A variable refrigerant package air conditioner is shown that is easy to install in new construction with a unique base that causes collected mixture that overflows to drain outside the building. A control system is shown that has motors and compressor that are pulse width modulated so the air conditioner is infinitely variable while maintaining the highest possible power factor. Dehumidification of outside air occurs as it is mixed with inside air. By gradually approaching a temperature set point and even reheating after dehumidification, moisture is removed from the room.

Abstract: A plumbing system and water transport method. The system includes a global water source, a one way water transport mechanism, a growing tray, and a local buffer. The local buffer separates the global water source and the growing tray to prevent cross-contamination of water. The local buffer also continuously provides water to the growing tray on demand without the need for filtering or dumping of used or excess water. This results in low flow, efficient water transport.
