Annual steam trap testing historically has been the best practice to maintaining an efficient steam system. Today, advances in cellular network technology and wireless monitoring capabilities have greatly reduced the cost of maintaining your steam trap population.

As your partner we can offset the cost and waste from annual testing and customize a pilot program to fit your needs.

You decide to expand the pilot-program, or we refund your money in full and remove the equipment.

Continuous Steam Trap Monitoring Program Benefits

Common problems with the 3rd party testing model include:

  • Incomplete steam audits due to access constraints, weather dependent system cycling and equipment outages

  • False readings due to human error occurring where conditions include condensate backpressure and equipment noise

  • A fixed point in time trap testing which cannot account for mechanical failures in the weeks and months after the testing is completed
