Disclaimer
The information presented on this web page gives approximate values of energy cost breakdowns and
potential savings. Because the input data are not as detailed as required under the MNECB or LEED,
actual results will vary. A number of factors, such as weather variations, building occupancy, other
building configurations, and operation schedules, also can affect energy usage and, consequently,
energy performance and savings. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the building will perform as
indicated.
