About

We put eyes on the boiler room.

Nio Controls is a New York City controls contractor. We design and install the controls that run heat and hot water in apartment buildings, then keep watching them from the outside so problems get caught before the tenants call.

Our story

A controls practice that started on the network side.

Nio Controls grew out of Nio Tech, the IT and network company. Running cabling, networks, and cameras through New York buildings, we kept walking past the same thing: a boiler room running blind. Nobody knew the supply temperature until a tenant called about no heat. Alarms went to a panel nobody looked at. The service log was a clipboard on a nail.

We already knew how to get data out of a basement and onto a screen. So we learned the controls side properly and built a practice around one promise: you should be able to see what your boiler room is doing from wherever you are, and so should we.

Today Nio Controls handles boiler and burner controls, pump and hydronic controls, building automation, and remote monitoring for buildings across the five boroughs. Same people, same phone number.

What we believe

Three rules we work by.

They sound obvious. In our experience they are not common.

Fix the root cause

A boiler that short-cycles has a reason. A pump that trips has a reason. We find it and fix it, instead of pressing reset and leaving.

Show the data

Every system we install reports supply and return temperatures, equipment status, and alarms to a portal you can open on your phone. You see the same screen we do.

Answer the phone

Call (347) 369-7269 and you get a person who knows your building, not a ticket number. Monitored buildings have a 24/7 line.

Team

A small crew that does the work itself.

The people who scope your job are the people who show up to install and service it.
