Distech Controls Service in Phoenix, AZ
Open controls on the Niagara Framework and IP controllers with their own web pages — a Canadian company's answer to proprietary building automation.
Distech Controls, based in Quebec and owned by Acuity Brands, builds building automation around openness: EC-Net and EC-BOS supervisory products on the Niagara Framework, Eclypse IP controllers that each serve their own web interface, and ECB and ECL field controllers on BACnet and LonWorks. The platform has grown in Phoenix through controls contractors who favor open systems, and it runs offices, schools, retail and mid-size commercial buildings across the metro. Bleuwave services Distech systems as an independent contractor, without dealer affiliation or factory authorization.
Open platforms are serviceable platforms. A Distech system does not need its original installer's permission to be maintained, and a contractor with Niagara credentials and Distech's programming tools can take it over. That openness is the reason owners chose the platform, and it is what makes an independent service relationship practical.

Service, Integration and Upgrades
Field controllers, sensors and actuators fail in Phoenix heat; Niagara supervisory controllers need version upgrades to stay supported; databases accumulate overrides; sequences drift. We troubleshoot and repair Distech systems at the controller, network and supervisory levels; replace failed devices; reprogram sequences; upgrade Niagara versions; integrate Distech controls with the mechanical equipment we service; and take over systems whose installer relationships have lapsed, through the building automation practice.
