Case Study: RYBKA achieves better MVHR performance and targeted maintenance with IES iSCAN

RYBKA uses Integrated Environmental Solutions to analyze 433,000 data points per room and fix MVHR issues

RYBKA, a sustainability consultancy, was appointed to conduct a post-occupancy evaluation for a new secondary school, facing the challenge of a labor-intensive manual data collection process. This process, involving CSV downloads from hundreds of thousands of data points, caused significant delays in identifying critical issues like malfunctioning ventilation systems that were failing to maintain healthy CO2 levels. To address this, they turned to Integrated Environmental Solutions and utilized its iSCAN product.

The iSCAN solution from Integrated Environmental Solutions automated data ingestion and provided advanced analytics, which enabled RYBKA to identify specific mechanical ventilation units that were malfunctioning or misused. This data-driven approach eliminated manual bottlenecks, reduced billable hours, and allowed for targeted repairs instead of site-wide audits. The results ensured the building complied with mandatory health standards and optimized the system's energy efficiency, proving the direct link between occupant behavior and energy consumption.
