Are you considering replacing your chiller? Think again! Retro-commissioning restores your existing chiller to its original performance specs while integrating advanced controls to maximize energy efficiency.

Aging equipment does not automatically require replacement. Many multifamily owners are taking a more deliberate approach to capital planning by evaluating whether existing infrastructure can be optimized, revitalized, or recommissioned before pursuing major expenditures. The result is often better visibility into: • Asset condition • Remaining useful life • Operational performance • Capital planning priorities Replacement should be a conclusion—not an assumption.

Many central plants continue operating for years while performance gradually declines. The signs are often subtle: • Rising utility costs • Increasing maintenance requirements • Reduced efficiency • More tenant comfort complaints Because the equipment still runs, these issues are often accepted as normal. In many cases, they are not. Dalkia helps multifamily operators identify hidden performance gaps and opportunities to improve efficiency without full replacement.

Most aging chiller plants are evaluated with one question: "What will it cost to replace?" A better question might be: "What is the current system still capable of?" Dalkia works with multifamily owners and operators to evaluate whether optimization, recommissioning, and operational improvements can restore performance before major capital investments are made. Before replacing critical infrastructure, it may be worth understanding all available options.

The default answer for aging chillers is usually replacement. But replacement isn’t always the responsible answer. Many systems are retired long before the underlying infrastructure has reached the end of its usable life. Through revitalization and retro-commissioning, universities can often: • Restore OEM-level performance • Improve resiliency • Lower operating costs • Extend asset life • Reduce unnecessary waste and disposal For campuses balancing sustainability goals with budget pressure, rebuilding existing infrastructure can be a smarter long-term strategy than starting over.
