4 Cost Savings Each $1 saved in energy equals an additional $20 in revenues. Graybar PowerSmart Solutions Energy is one cost that healthcare facilities can control. According to the Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey reported on the Energy Star website, healthcare organizations spend over $8.5 billion on energy each year to meet patient needs. Every dollar a nonprofit healthcare organization saves on energy equals bottom line revenue increases of $20 for hospitals or $10 for medical offices. Although energy costs continue to increase, the investment for energy saving solutions can be reduced through a number of incentives, utility incentive rebates, PACE financing and other incentives through local utilities and local and state governments. In addition to cost savings, sustainable facilities can enhance the patient experience and make healthcare facilities more marketable to prospective employees and patients alike. The U.S. Energy Information Adminstration reports that commercial electrical rates will rise 8.2% from Power Monitoring To support your energy cost and environmental impact reduction strategies, knowing when, where and how your facility consumes energy is vital. Without the knowledge of how your energy is being consumed, you can t measure. If you can t measure your energy consumption, you can t manage it. Utilities can exceed 30 percent of your expense load. Graybar provides the Square D PowerLogic systems which are based on innovative technology that acts like a layer of intelligence across all of your energy assets. You can accurately meter and monitor your usage, allowing you to target your strategy and improve power quality as well as reliability. Advanced analytic tools enable effective decisions, while coordinated control capabilities help act on them. Your return on investment is fast and quantifiable, often within a few months. Verify your utility bill and reduce usage Optimize power usage and identify issues before failure Sure-Volt solutions can improve power quality and reliability An Integrated An Integrated Approach 4 Healthcare Facility Solutions GRAYBAR ( ) graybar.com

5 Emergency Power Supply System (EPSS) EPSS is often cited in the Top 10 Joint Commission Deficiencies. Graybar can help you take backup power system reliability to the next level. Benefits: Boost EPSS reliability by exercising generators at manufacturer s ratings for load or exhaust gas temperature (EGT) or both Validate the responsiveness of automatic transfer switches (ATS) or transfer schemes Free up staff to focus on core healthcare duties by eliminating inefficient manual testing Automatically measure and monitor your EPSS 24/7 Collect data during real outages; use as test data when it meets testing criteria Precisely tailor the content of reports to match regulatory and management requirements Compliance A six-hour power failure can cost a 200-bed hospital $1 million Graphic courtesy of Schneider Electric graybar.com GRAYBAR ( ) Healthcare Facility Solutions 5

6 Patient Experience Lighting is critical for caregiver evaluations as well as the patient s sense of happiness and security. Excellence in Healthcare Lighting Patient experience, energy budget, caregiver performance, maintenance team availability and more are all affected by your lighting system. Graybar can help you make sense of your current lighting system, controls and emergency power supply. We can then help you prioritize solutions designed to meet regulations, improve lighting performance, reduce maintenance time and save energy. A thoughtful plan based on actual needs and expense can be your roadmap to exceed your business objectives. Stop Chasing Lamps and Ballasts! LED is now the obvious light source of choice on the hospital campus. LED advantages are: instant on, lower energy costs, lower lumen depreciation, dimmable, no UV/IR emissions, cold temperature operation and environmentally friendly. LED life is often 50,000 hrs and can range up to 100,000 hrs, freeing your staff from lamp replacement. Parking Lots and Garages Garages usually offer the best payback as they have long burn hours. The LED light sources brighten the space with white light and improve the sense of safety. With their custom optics, we can deliver a much smoother lighting job, reducing dark spots and shadows dramatically. Patients and their families can spot their vehicles safely and easily with bright, color correct light. LED Replacements Replacement LED lamps are an excellent choice to upgrade your facility, while retaining your current fixtures. We stock a wide variety of shapes, sizes and wattages to fit your applications. Your light levels are improved while maintenance needs diminish! They are an excellent choice for those hard-to-reach fixtures. Want to learn the latest?

7 Prereq 1 Storage and Collecti Outdoor LED Lighting Exterior lighting floodlights, wall packs and accent lights are important to improve the attractiveness of your hospital. Until now, the downside was that they consume valuable maintenance time as well as electric power. LED sources are excellent at performing the task. They have crisp white light, excellent control and a very low energy draw. Service intervals can be measured in decades instead of years. Cost Savings LED lighting is designed to provide: energy savings decreased maintenance great lighting quality Find Dollars in Your Stairwells Stairwells are a great place to save energy and reduce maintenance! LED fixtures can dramatically reduce maintenance in very awkward spaces as well as cut wattage. Graybar can assist you in selecting fixtures that contain integral sensors that reliably dim the fixture to a reduced light level but return to full levels when entered.

11 Graybar Intelligent Building Solutions Intelligent buildings are facilities that use technology to create an environment that is pleasing, yet carefully managed to maximize return on investment. They use technology that knows when to turn up the heat, turn off the lights or switch on an alarm. Intelligent building systems can provide considerable advantages to building owners and occupants in terms of costs, convenience and comfort. These systems make it easy and effective to monitor and manage all of your facilities, from the smallest medical office building to the largest campus on one pane of glass. Patient Experience Intelligent buildings help your patients and visitors focus on what matters without inconvenience! Security Mobility Networks Cost Savings Surveillance Access Controls Visitor Management Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) WiFi Mesh Wireless Cell Phones TIA 1179 Upgrades Passive Optical Networks Ethernet BACnet IP ZIGBEE In order to save money, you need to monitor, measure, and then control. An intelligent building handles all of those tasks. LonWorks Notification Energy DALI Unified Communications Audio/Visual Lighting Controls PA Systems HVAC Interface Digital Displays Building Management Fire Detection Alarms Why Hospitals Need DAS Healthcare professionals need to be able to communicate quickly a few seconds can make a difference between life and death. In addition, physicians, surgeons and nurses want the ability to access clinical intelligence, medical apps and patient records all at a patient s bedside. Unfortunately hospitals are known for their weak or spotty RF (radio frequency) coverage due to factors like lead-lined X-ray rooms, glass shielding, metal and concrete which block RF signals. Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) available through Graybar are designed to overcome inherent structural obstacles to distribute reliable cellular coverage throughout your healthcare facility. Plus, Graybar makes it easy to implement DAS. We bring together the manufacturers, contractors, integrators, wireless service providers (WSPs or cellular carriers) and even funding options, if needed, to take your project from concept to completion.
