Subject: [Equest-users] Elevator schedules

 

Hello everyone. Does anyone know of any published literature or data on
elevator usage by building type?  I'm looking into my elevator schedules
and I'm wondering if LEED (ASHRAE) has some definitive requirements that
I haven't found or whether the schedules are basically up to me.

 

What are typical energy usage ratios others have used for elevators in
higher-education teaching facilities?  I'm finding that even just a 10%
reduction in usage (ratio of 0.2 from 0.3) has a substantial decrease in
overall building misc. energy usage.

 

Thank you.
