VANCOUVER, April 11, 2019 /CNW/ - Universal mCloud Corp.
(TSX-V: MCLD) (OTCQB: MCLDF) ("mCloud" or the "Company"), a leading provider of asset management solutions combining IoT, cloud
computing, artificial intelligence ("AI"), and analytics, today announced the start of a six-year agreement with TELUS Corporate
Real Estate ("TELUS") to upgrade HVAC controls and deploy AssetCare at one of their premier office towers, 200 Consilium Place,
in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada.
Supported by strategic partner Cypress Envirosystems Inc. ("Cypress"), mCloud will upgrade and replace 450 legacy thermostats
with Cypress Wireless Pneumatic Thermostats (WPT) and Green Box Controllers connected via mesh network to the building's main
control system. This configuration enables building engineers to have complete, real-time visibility into temperature and
schedule settings, managing comfort across 14 TELUS office and call center floors.
The upgrade is expected to reduce energy costs related to heating and cooling by 25%, along with substantial reductions in
facility maintenance costs. AssetCare will provide fault detection and diagnostics on zone-level dampers and actuators – building
systems that are crucial to occupant comfort and help building engineers get ahead of potential heating or cooling issues.
"We're thrilled to put our partnership with TELUS into action by upgrading one of their signature office towers," said
Dave Weinerth, mCloud President, Smart Buildings. "The intelligence we are adding to this office
tower through AssetCare's AI and analytics will yield tangible cost savings and will serve as a great example for thousands of
similar legacy buildings across North America."
