THE PROBLEM

The waste hiding in commercial HVAC is invisible, until it shows up on the bill.

HVAC is one of the largest energy uses in any commercial building, and rooftop units are a major source of avoidable waste. In retail grocery and convenience operations, those costs compound quickly across a fleet, and much of the waste is entirely preventable.

"The waste hiding in commercial HVAC systems isn't a technical problem. It's an operational problem. Nobody is watching, so unit failures and energy waste can silently persist for months or years without anyone noticing."

Amrit Robbins, CEO & Co-Founder, Axiom Cloud

A rooftop unit runs at full capacity through the night, conditioning an empty building as if it were packed with customers. Two adjacent units quietly battle each other, one heating while the other cools, burning double the energy without changing the temperature at all. These failures don't trip an alarm, so they hide in plain sight, draining utility budgets across every location in the fleet.

The Problem.jpg

Conditioning empty buildings

RTUs commonly run at full capacity during off-hours, heating and cooling an empty building as if it were full of customers.

Units battling each other

Adjacent units run in opposite modes, one heating and one cooling, consuming nearly double the energy with no change in temperature.

Failures that never alarm

Configuration faults persist for months or years without triggering an alarm, silently driving up utility costs fleet-wide.

U.S. RETAIL GROCER

"HVAC energy opportunities are vast. We've never spent much time commissioning HVAC. When we get it running, we make it cold, we make it hot. But optimizing that system and how they work together, I think there's a ton of opportunity."

— Director of Facility Engineering at a top-5 U.S. retail grocer

THE SOLUTION

Lower energy costs and better comfort, automatically.

The same platform already optimizing refrigeration across the enterprise now covers HVAC. Axiom identifies inefficiencies across your full portfolio, quantifies what they're costing you, and resolves what it can remotely, with no new hardware, no truck rolls, and no operational burden.

The approach: Axiom continuously identifies faulty units and maintains the health of the RTU fleet, while learning site-specific baselines and adjusting setpoints and operating parameters through the existing controller to deliver energy savings automatically, without affecting occupant comfort.

Lower energy spend

Continuous tuning captures savings static schedules can't reach.

Comfort, protected

Every change is checked against comfort standards first.

No operational lift

Software-only and expert-run, so your team stays on the store

THE PLATFORM

See it work across every rooftop unit, in one platform.

Axiom connects securely to the building management systems and controllers already in place, giving you clear visibility into every unit, diagnosing what's wrong, and resolving what it can remotely.

RESOLUTION

See every RTU in real time

Issues found and priced

Space temperature, setpoints, humidity, and more, surfaced per site, per unit.

Inefficiencies across the fleet, each with a dollar impact and whether it can be resolved remotely.

Approve, and it's done

Review the proposed change and savings, approve, and Axiom applies the fix remotely, with no truck roll.

Safe by design. Every optimization is comfort-checked and expert-reviewed before it goes live, and you can adjust or roll back any change at any time.

RTU SAVINGS
 

~11% energy savings on RTU consumption
 

Based on analysis of operational data from a Fortune-50 grocery retailer, Axiom's optimization engine identifies significant energy waste across HVAC fleets that can be eliminated without affecting store comfort or operations.
 

  • Savings quantified per store with full transparency into methodolgy

  • Occupant comfort is never sacrificed. Every optimization is checked against comfort thresholds before it's applied
