EQUIPMENT AND ENERGY MANAGEMENT

The equipment optimization and energy management application of Open Kitchen® delivers enterprise-wide visibility and reduced operating costs. With centralized HVAC, lighting, and equipment control, you can balance comfort and energy use.

Reduce energy spend. Improve maintenance programs.

Open Kitchen enables you to control HVAC, lighting and equipment to lower energy expenses, maintenance costs and equipment downtime.

HVAC Controls

Control energy use and temperatures to help optimize HVAC performance

Equipment Control

Control just about any equipment, including lighting, space heaters, hood exhausts, and more

Refrigeration Control

Fully-integrated controls provide remote control and monitoring of walk-in refrigeration

Remote Energy Monitoring

Monitor electricity usage at the electric panel, down to the equipment level, and leverage patented analysis to produce critical equipment intelligence

Remote Equipment Monitoring

Access the data needed to maintain equipment and facility operational performance

Equipment Asset Management

Easily capture equipment properties and conditions with a mobile app and maintain that information over time

Three valuable benefits of Energy Management Systems (EMS) in food service establishments include continuous, real-time monitoring of equipment conditions; compliance with operating policies; and early detection of failures. In addition, meaningful equipment performance patterns can be identified and used to prioritize, track, and evaluate predictive and preventive maintenance opportunities. This can increase the life of expensive equipment, reduce recurring maintenance costs, and provide data for the reprioritization of repair budgets.
