What kind of improvements will I see?
NRM’s unique and proven smart controls improve the operation of your refrigeration system from top to bottom. Beside adapting your system’s cooling schedule from running continuously to need-based, the controls also improve your ability to track temperatures, defrost your evaporator fans, address temperature issues, and more.
Have you ever stopped and considered why your refrigeration needs to run just as hard in the middle of January as it does in the middle of July? The short answer is it actually doesn’t need to. NRM’s efficiency measures can reduce your system’s runtime by an average of 40-60% without jeopardizing food safety.
One of the main contributing factors to the inefficient operation of a commercial refrigeration system is old, outdated equipment components. Most systems we encounter are 10-15+ years old, which means much of the hardware can be upgraded to higher efficiency versions.
Another leading cause of inefficient, wasteful operation of your refrigeration system is the existence of unseen mechanical issues. Not only do these kinds of issues sap your system of effective cooling, they could lead to a catastrophic failure that risks your perishable cold product. NRM’s controls will alert you immediately if they detect an issue.
Along with better operation and oversight, NRM’s solution delivers proven, verifiable energy savings that will lower your monthly commercial electric bill. Because the savings can be tracked and verified, BGE trusts NRM’s results enough that they’re the exclusive vendor for refrigeration controls and measures.
CoolTrol® is the backbone of every customized, turnkey solution.
It's more than a "new" thermostat. CoolTrol gives you full control over the operation of your refrigeration system — from bypass features to one-button defrost to temp. settings on the fly, to automated temperature tracking, and more — while also providing long-term "set it and forget" energy savings.

The no-obligation, no-cost assessment is a quick but crucial first step in getting your project underway. This is where we’ll determine if your refrigeration is eligible for the grant, and then get started om securing you the funds.
An NRM Energy Advisor analyzes your refrigeration’s current operation in a walk-through that usually takes 15-20 minutes. They note what kind of equipment your system has, runtimes, and draws a sketch of the walk-in cooler’s or freezer’s layout.

"NRM has been outstanding through this whole program. Your technicians were very professional, and during the last project, even took the time to answer questions from my refrigeration guy so he could properly interact with the controls moving forward. And the energy savings help everyone’s bottom line. If the utility companies can’t find new ways to generate electricity, our costs are going to go up substantially, so this is a way we all can help."

"The energy savings have definitely been noticeable! Our electric bill has decreased about 25% since NRM optimized our coolers. But the biggest benefit has been Remote Site Manager. It’s great to be made aware of mechanical issues that might otherwise go unnoticed in between the quarterly preventative maintenance calls. And the visual diagnostics on the dashboard are a great help in explaining to the technicians exactly what’s going on when they do need to come out."
