Running a restaurant is a balancing act. You’re juggling staffing, inventory, customer service—and somewhere in that mix, the utility bills keep creeping up. You’re not alone. Most restaurant owners are paying more than they should for energy, not because they’re careless, but because traditional systems offer very little control.
At Engenuity Systems, we work with restaurant operators across the country who are looking to reduce costs without sacrificing comfort, food safety, or customer experience. Our energy management platform, eViewIoT, is built specifically for businesses like yours—and the good news? Cutting your utility bills doesn’t require a major investment. It just requires smarter control.
The Hidden Energy Drains in Your Restaurant
Every restaurant has a few usual suspects when it comes to high energy use:
- HVAC systems running nonstop—even when no one’s in the building
- Lighting that stays on outside of business hours
- Refrigeration systems that defrost too often, whether they need it or not
These may seem like minor issues, but across multiple locations and seasons, they add up fast.
Smarter Control, Lower Bills
The key isn’t replacing your equipment—it’s making it work smarter. With eViewIoT, restaurant owners can:
- Set automated HVAC schedules that adjust for business hours, slow periods, and overnight
- Monitor and control cooler and freezer temps in real time to keep food safe and compressors running efficiently
- Use Demand Defrost to eliminate unnecessary defrost cycles—activating only when needed, not every 4–6 hours like a typical timer
- Manage indoor and outdoor lighting schedules, including sunrise/sunset controls to reduce waste without compromising visibility or safety
And it all runs through one platform—accessible from your phone, laptop, or anywhere with Wi-Fi.
What It Means for Your Bottom Line
Restaurants using eViewIoT typically see a 10–20% reduction in energy costs within the first few months. But beyond the savings, they gain visibility and control—two things every operator needs in a business where margins are thin and downtime is expensive.
