Operating cost per sqft

Greg Titgen: Cushman & Wakefield; November 4, 2014

When doing calculations for HVAC for Boma standards do they use the cooling towers in this calculation?

David Fingret: Extreme Measures Inc.; November 4, 2014

Hi Greg,

What kind of HVAC calculations? We can only answer questions about area analyses for leasing purposes. If your question is about heating and cooling requirements, we cannot help you with this.

Thanks,
