FAQ

Common questions

Can AGG Controls integrate legacy BMS controls with newer BACnet systems?+

Yes. We utilize multi-protocol gateways to bridge legacy proprietary protocols to open BACnet IP networks.

What is industrial control panel safety certification?+

Panel certification guarantees compliance, proper short-circuit ratings, and component safety for DOB inspections.

How do automated lighting controls help satisfy NYC Energy Code?+

NYC Energy Code requires automatic daylight harvesting, occupancy sensing, and scheduled shutoffs in commercial spaces. Our lighting systems satisfy these code thresholds.
