What can you do to reduce spending on energy?

Did you know....

• Boiler Losses

  20-25 % of the heat is lost up the chimney before it does any work.

• Economizer

  5-7 % of the fuel can be recovered with an economizer which heats the feedwater entering the boiler.

• Condensing Economizer

  An additional 15 % can be recovered with a condensing economizer by reducing the stack temperature to 100 F with a 50-90 F water supply.

• Proper Boiler Sizing

  15 % of the fuel can be saved by operating the appropriately sized boiler at 80 % of maximum rating rather than an oversized boiler at 20 % of rating.

• Minimum Number of Boilers on Line

  15 % of the fuel can be saved by operating the least number of boilers that will carry the load.

• Boiler Cycling

  A cycling boiler (On-off) operates 30 % lower in efficiency than one that operates near its maximum rating.
  The longer it is off - the lower the efficiency.
