Our Solution
4D Monitoring uses wireless CT clamps and smart meters to measure energy use at circuit, plant, and site level. Whether it’s a chiller drawing excess load, lighting left on overnight, or tenant circuits consuming more than expected, live data shows exactly where electricity is being used — and wasted.
Data streams into secure dashboards that highlight anomalies, track trends, and provide the evidence needed for fair cost allocation and carbon reporting.
Occupant complaints are a common consequence of poorly managed temperatures, ranging from discomfort in underheated or overheated areas to frustration with inconsistent conditions between floors or zones. Beyond reducing satisfaction, frequent complaints place added pressure on facilities teams and can negatively affect productivity and wellbeing — issues highlighted in CIBSE’s guidance on thermal comfort.
Occupant Complaints
Wasting Energy
Poor indoor air quality doesn’t just cause complaints — it impacts health, wellbeing, and performance. High CO₂ levels reduce concentration and increase fatigue, while poor humidity control raises risks of damp or discomfort. Monitoring ensures spaces are ventilated appropriately and consistently, not just assumed to be.
<why it matters>
High CO₂ Levels
In meeting rooms, classrooms, and open-plan spaces, CO₂ can build up quickly when ventilation isn’t matched to occupancy. This leads to “stuffy” conditions, reduced concentration, and a higher risk of spreading airborne illnesses — often without anyone realising until complaints are raised.
Damp & Dryness
Humidity that stays too high encourages damp, mould growth, and long-term damage to the building fabric. Too low, and it causes dry skin, irritation, and discomfort for tenants. Without monitoring, these conditions go unnoticed until the effects are visible — or costly to fix.
Case Study
At Cambridge Meridian Academies Trust, 4D Monitoring deployed sensors across classrooms to measure CO₂, temperature, and humidity. The data revealed poor ventilation in certain teaching spaces, with CO₂ consistently above healthy thresholds during lessons.
Armed with clear evidence, the estates team adjusted ventilation schedules and airflows. The result: healthier learning environments, reduced complaints, and improved staff confidence in the quality of their classrooms.
