Commissioning

ES2, a leading provider of innovative building management solutions and the only authorized Automated Logic dealer in Arkansas and Oklahoma, proudly announces the successful completion of a state-of-the-art building automation system installation at the Heartland Whole Health Institute in Bentonville, Arkansas. Leveraging Automated Logic’s industry-leading WebCTRL® platform, ES2 has delivered a customized, energy-efficient, and intuitive system to support the institute’s mission of increasing access to care, improving outcomes, and transforming the healthcare system through a whole health approach that integrates physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being.

The Heartland Whole Health Institute, a groundbreaking facility dedicated to integrative healthcare, required a sophisticated building automation system to ensure occupant comfort, optimize energy performance, and streamline facility management. ES2 won the project to furnish, install, and commission the building automation system, demonstrating our commitment to delivering tailored solutions for complex building environments.

Project Highlights

ES2’s engineering team collaborated closely with the Heartland Whole Health Institute to design a comprehensive building automation system that integrates heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, and other critical systems into a single, cohesive platform. Key features of the installation include:

Automated Logic WebCTRL® System: The WebCTRL platform provides real-time visibility and control, enabling facility managers to monitor energy usage, equipment performance, and indoor environmental conditions from any internet-capable device. Its open architecture ensures seamless integration with existing hardware across multiple manufacturers, maximizing flexibility and future-proofing the system.
Energy Efficiency: By implementing precise control strategies, such as demand-based HVAC scheduling and fault detection diagnostics (FDD), the system optimizes energy consumption while maintaining occupant comfort, aligning with the institute’s sustainability goals.
Remote Diagnostics and Maintenance: ES2’s remote diagnostics capabilities enable proactive monitoring and rapid response to potential issues, thereby reducing maintenance costs and minimizing downtime. Trend reports and analytics empower facility managers to implement effective energy management strategies.
User-Friendly Interface: The customized web-based interface, developed by ES2’s in-house engineers, provides intuitive access to building operations, enabling Heartland Whole Health Institute staff to manage systems efficiently without extensive technical training.

A Partnership for Innovation

“ES2 is honored to partner with the Heartland Whole Health Institute to bring their vision of sustainability to life,” said Jesse Gentling, Director of Sales at ES2. He continues, “By leveraging Automated Logic’s WebCTRL system, we’ve delivered a solution that not only enhances operational efficiency but also supports the Institute’s commitment to creating a healthy, comfortable environment.”

Automated Logic’s WebCTRL platform, renowned for its scalability and open architecture, was the ideal choice for this project. “The flexibility and power of WebCTRL allowed us to create a tailored solution that meets the unique needs of the Heartland Whole Health Institute,” added Arkansas Branch Director of Operations Jacob Kinser. He adds, “Our team’s expertise in building automation, combined with Automated Logic’s innovative technology, ensured a seamless installation and commissioning process.”

Impact and Future Benefits

The building automation system installation at Heartland Whole Health Institute delivers immediate and long-term benefits, including:

Reduced Operating Costs: Energy-efficient controls and proactive maintenance strategies lower utility and maintenance expenses, enabling the institute to allocate resources more effectively to research.

Enhanced Occupant Comfort: Precise temperature, humidity, and air quality management create an optimal environment for occupants.

Scalability: The open architecture and backward compatibility of Automated Logic products ensure the system can adapt to future expansions or technological advancements without costly upgrades.
