How hotels cut air-conditioning costs with room management (GRMS)
Empty rooms with the AC on are one of the biggest hidden costs in a hotel. A guest room management system fixes that automatically.
In a typical hotel, air conditioning is the largest electricity user. Much of it is wasted: rooms that are not sold are kept cold all day, and guests leave the AC running when they go out.
How iNELS GRMS works
- A glass card reader at the door knows when the guest is in the room.
- When the guest leaves, the room thermostat switches to an economy temperature and lights switch off.
- Unsold rooms stay in economy mode, and reception can pre-cool a room shortly before check-in.
- Door bells, do-not-disturb and make-up-room signals appear at the door and at reception.
How much can a hotel save?
It depends on the number of rooms, occupancy, the type of AC and your electricity tariff. Our hotel savings calculator gives a first estimate in one minute, and shows every assumption so your engineer can check it.
Better comfort, not only savings
Guests get one clean glass panel per room, with clear symbols in Arabic and English. Housekeeping sees which rooms need service, and maintenance sees faults before guests complain.
