Case Study: HOM Furniture achieves $45K+ in energy savings (21% electricity reduction) with EnergyPrint (and 75F HVAC controls)

Retail Location Proves More than $45k in Energy Savings in Just 11 Months with EnergyPrint & 75F

HOM Furniture, one of the nation’s largest furniture retailers serving the upper Midwest with 100,000+ sq. ft. stores, faced high energy costs (about $227,967/year) and aging rooftop units across its portfolio. Since 2010 HOM has used EnergyPrint and the EnergyPrint Utility Dashboard to track utility data, prioritize efficiency improvements, and prove results, and was looking for cost‑effective measures to lower consumption and operating expense.

HOM teamed with 75F to install Outside Air Optimization economizer controls and 75F Smart Nodes on RTUs at its Plymouth showroom while continuing to use EnergyPrint’s Utility Dashboard to benchmark and validate savings. The combined solution (backed by $6,600 in Xcel rebates) delivered more than $45,500 in utility bill savings in the first year, cutting electricity consumption and costs by about 21.3%; EnergyPrint’s dashboard also gave HOM portfolio visibility to target further 75F opportunities.
