Convenience Store, Westwood, Massachusetts
This 1500-sq.-ft. convenience store had 9 Coke/Pepsi Visio Units (13 doors total), each with its own compressor, which introduced a large amount of heat into air-conditioned retail space. The large refrigeration load lead to high utility bills and strained the HVAC system during the cooling months. NRM Refrigeration Services engineered, designed and built a custom, 13-door Reach-in Cooler with a remote compressor located outdoors. The cooling load on the A/C was greatly reduced and the new installation cut the customer’s electric consumption by 20%. NRM also secured a rebate from the local utility that helped offset a large portion of the cost.*

Regional Convenience Chain, New England Region
The 300+ stores throughout this New England-based convenience store chain averaged 300,000 kWh or $45,000 per year. Major electrical loads included 5-Door Split Compressor Reach-in Freezers, 11-Door Walk-in Coolers, Open Front Refrigerator Cases, 2 Small Deli Walk-ins, 2 HVAC Rooftop Units and outdoor lights. After NRM engineered and installed Remote Site Manager to control and monitor all refrigeration, HVAC and outdoor lighting, electrical consumption was reduced by 33%, which equaled $15,000 per year in energy costs. The customer experienced payback in less than a year, and gained substantial control over maintenance costs by diagnosing equipment malfunctions before they became a major problem.*
