4 Panelists will have 90 seconds to answer the below questions:

• How do you see technology advances, such as wireless controllers or smart phones, playing into the future of HVAC Controls? 

• What are your thoughts on integrating with equipment manufacturers? 

• How can you minimize the amount of time for system integration between Equipment Suppliers and Controls contractors with open protocol integration such as BACnet or LonTalk? 

• What are your thoughts of the controls commissioning process? 

• What do you think about the migration from older control systems? 

• What do think about integration with non HVAC systems like lighting systems, power monitoring, door access and security cameras? 

• As a control contractor, what are the largest challenges or issues you face? 

• What is new in the controls world?

NOTE:

If additional time is available, questions from the audience may be fielded so long as they are manufacturer agnostic and pertain to the controls marketplace as a whole.
