Enterprise Refrigerant Manager (ERM), eliminates manual systems and allows for a fast accurate implementation. Our ERM software is comprehensive, yet simple to use.FACILITIES OPERATIONAn important part of managing the operation of your facilities is understanding the use of refrigerants. Many refrigerants in use today are regulated by the EPA and are hazardous to the environment. Recent activity by the EPA and the Department of Justice has shown that many retailers are not in compliance. Grocery retailers as well as other owners of refrigerants have been fined tens of millions of dollars over the past few years.COST ANALYSISIn addition to compliance, management of refrigerant is important from a cost perspective. A typical 100-store supermarket chain operates with 400,000 lbs. of refrigerant within their refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Assuming an average cost of $6 per pound, this equates to a $2.4 million asset.
