SMI Impact

Designed scope of work to improve steam trap performance, reduce heat loss, and enhance system safety and operational efficiency.

Estimated Annual Savings from Steam Trap Replacement and Monitoring: $88,876 per year

Estimated Annual Savings from Piping Insulation: $28,133 per year

Customer

An ESCO engaged with Steam Management, Inc. as a trusted partner to design a comprehensive steam system optimization scope of work for the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center, a 35-acre campus in Aurora, CO, that provides health care needs to veterans.

Conditions

The steam system at the VA Medical Center faces inefficiencies and energy losses due to the high failure rate of steam traps, absence of continuous monitoring delaying the identification of failures, and heat loss due to uninsulated piping and equipment.

The VA prohibited the use of cast iron fittings and pipe components due to the risk of failure. The project aims to replace these components with safer alternatives and comply with VA directives.
