Ento Control
Smart HVAC management tailored to each individual building
Every building in the world is unique – and so is the need for heating, cooling, and ventilation (HVAC). With Ento Control, healthy indoor air quality and a comfortable indoor environment are achieved while consuming the absolute minimum amount of energy.
Using existing sensor data such as temperature, humidity, and CO2, the system learns how each building’s Building Management System (BMS) meets the users' requirements for indoor air quality. It also understands how building characteristics, such as shading and thermal inertia, affect the HVAC system’s ability to control the indoor environment.
By using this deep understanding of each individual building's characteristics, combined with meteorological forecasts, Ento Control accurately inputs the right amount of HVAC at the right time to meet the users' desired set points perfectly.
AI-optimised HVAC systems for better indoor climate and less energy use
Reduce energy consumption and hours of operation
With Ento Control you can improve HVAC management by closely matching it to actual needs.
Our artificial intelligence combines comprehensive data on building characteristics with real-time information on occupancy, indoor climate and weather conditions such as solar radiation and outdoor temperature.
In this approach, we use our AI to precisely adapt the indoor climate, ensuring optimal comfort with minimal energy consumption.
The result is a significantly improved indoor climate that is tailored to the unique needs of both the occupants and the building.
Compliance with laws and regulations
More and more countries mandate building owners to ensure that indoor CO2 levels don't exceed a certain level of ppm.
By automating your ventilation and heating systems, you can stay compliant with regulations.
Improved indoor climate and occupant comfort
Indoor comfort and climate are often overlooked variables. However, studies show that maintaining comfortable temperatures and healthy indoor air quality, prevents health issues and cognitive impairments, highlighting the need for effective ventilation strategies.
Making your job easier
With Ento Control, your HVAC management becomes seamless. Our AI monitors the system 24/7 and alerts you only when your attention is required – freeing you to focus on other tasks.
Use your existing software and hardware
Ento Control integrates with your existing Building Management System, and can integrate indoor climate data from third parties too. There’s built-in safety, so if anything goes offline, the BMS falls back to your default settings.

What our customers say about Ento
It’s cool that the analysis work and data processing now takes up so little time, that we can use our resources in the buildings. Now the time is spent on what creates value.
Through our strategic partnership with Ento, we can automatically identify and document energy savings in our branches and buildings. This has resulted in an incredible result oriented tool that helps to create change rather than just reporting on consumption.
We are working on all fronts to lower our energy consumption, but combating energy waste through Ento’s solution is an easy way to achieve energy savings immediately – and the results speak for themselves!
Still got questions?
How much does Ento Control cost?
Even if there are no room sensors installed at the site, starting costs are minimal. We normally don’t charge an upfront integration fee and after setup, Ento Control is based on an annual subscription model. For a free trial or a quote, please contact our sales team.

What happens if the Wifi connection is interrupted?
In case the Wifi connection to the cloud is interrupted for more than 90 minutes, the system falls back on your BMS’ default settings. This ensures that your HVAC system keeps operating.

Is Ento Control a BMS? And Is Ento Control useful if I already have a BMS?
Ento Control is an upgrade to your BMS. We basically add a smart layer on top that sends new instructions to your BMS. Those instructions are based on real-time information from room sensors, weather forecasts, outdoor temperature, or occupancy data etc. Ento Control is also able to predict how those variables may change in the course of the next hours. By this, your HVAC system is controlled on demand and according to the occupants actual needs instead of operating according to fixed schedules.

How does Ento Control help me comply with local laws and regulations e.g. for indoor air quality levels?
You are able to set a threshold for the maximum concentration of CO2 (ppm) in a room. Ento Control monitors the indoor air quality by analysing the data provided by the room sensors and makes sure that the predefined threshold isn’t exceeded.

What technical systems can we control with your solution?
Ento Control automatically controls your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to optimise the indoor environment for temperature and air quality, and, at the same time, helps reduce the energy consumption.

Do I need to purchase any Advisor products to use Ento Control?
Ento Control is a stand-alone product so it is not necessary to purchase any of our Advisor products. However, for a holistic approach to energy optimisation, we of course recommend monitoring all of your energy sources.

How can intelligent control of my HVAC system reduce energy consumption?
It's all about avoiding using energy when it's not needed. For ventilation, smart demand-driven control operates based on CO2 levels, providing fresh air as needed rather than following fixed schedules. For heating, temperatures are lowered when no occupants are present to minimise heat loss. The system also uses building heat capacity and solar radiation effects to avoid unnecessary heating. By predicting future needs and using weather forecasts, the algorithm optimises energy use while maintaining user-specified comfort levels.
