Old timer told me to stop using wireless sensors in commercial buildings

Five years ago a guy who's been doing this since the 80s told me hardwire was the only way to go for a warehouse in Phoenix. I ignored him and used wireless anyway, now I'm replacing half the sensors every 18 months because of interference from the HVAC units. Anyone else find wireless holds up better in certain buildings or am I just picking the wrong gear?

A Schneider rep told me their wireless gear handles industrial interference way better than most brands.

Sales reps never exaggerate, right?

Funny you say that, I switched to their wireless gear last year and it's been rock solid for me.
