Steam System Experts for LL97 Compliance

Steam Management, Inc. helps NYC buildings meet Local Law 97 targets by identifying and eliminating hidden steam losses that drive up emissions and energy costs. Our turnkey steam system upgrades are backed by utility incentives and designed to deliver measurable carbon reductions with minimal disruption. Many buildings see a 10–30% drop in gas emissions through steam system upgrades alone.

Through Our Zero-Cost Steam Trap Repair Program, Steam Management has completed installing 35,000 steam traps in over 35 school districts in Downstate New York, generating over 1 million therms saved, all at no cost to the schools. That equates to saving over 5,300 tons of CO2 per year or removing almost 1,200 passenger cars from the road!

We Help New York Facilities Leverage Incentives to Cut Emissions and Fuel Costs

Minimal oversite required for installation

Substantial annual fuel cost reductions

Improved energy efficiency and system reliability

Steam systems are often one of the largest and most overlooked sources of emissions in older NYC buildings. Addressing these inefficiencies can drive major improvements in performance and compliance outcomes.

We begin with a comprehensive steam system assessment to uncover hidden inefficiencies and develop tailored, actionable solutions. Our recommendations are designed to deliver measurable energy savings, lower emissions, and reduce operating costs.
