Just like a car, buildings need regular tune-ups to make sure they’re running efficiently. A building’s mechanical and electrical systems become less efficient with age, and without a tune-up, you may be wasting money every month.
PSE’s Comprehensive Building Tune-Up (CBTU) involves commissioning the building’s existing systems. This process optimizes existing systems, so there’s no major capital expense – with little up-front investment, you can watch the savings roll in!
See how The Westin saves $46,600 per year by participating in the CBTU program.

- PSE pays up to 100% of customer cost
- On-site review by energy experts
- Comprehensive training for O&M staff

| PSE Tip
While PSE’s CBTU Program can help you put your building operation and energy use back on track, you can also save by reviewing your building’s system requirements and those of your occupants as they are likely to change regularly. If you stay on top of occupancy scheduling, system setpoints and maintenance, you can enjoy reduced operating cost well into the future. |
