BENEFITS

From food service to healthcare, smarter refrigeration drives a better bottom line.

Energy efficient systems reduce costs, improve performance and support long-term profitability.

Reduce energy use.

Evaporator fan controllers increase the efficiency of refrigeration systems by reducing air flow and slowing motor speeds.

Lower operating costs.

High-efficiency reach-ins lower operating costs up to 35% thanks to energy efficient LED lighting, ECM motors and high efficiency doors.

Reduce food waste.

Protect your inventory and your profit margins by reducing food waste.

Enjoy quieter, more efficient systems.

ECMs are quieter, more efficient and last longer than permanent-split capacitor (PSC) motors. They also generate less heat.
REQUIREMENTS

Refrigeration incentive eligibility and requirements.

Here’s what you need to know about eligible projects and upgrade requirements.
