Veolia Energy Philadelphia – Manhole Insulation Upgrades

Project Details

TST measured, designed, manufactured and installed custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RICs) for all steam and condensate piping in 11 manholes throughout Philadelphia.

For nearly two decades, TST has been providing Veolia Energy with custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RIC) for manhole piping systems. Our turnkey contracting services for RICs consists of measurement, design, manufacture and installation. All measurement and installation work for RICs is carried out while the steam piping remains in service which often results in hot, rigorous work environments. Our experienced team of field technicians is confined space trained and will only enter these confined spaces after setting up adequate ventilation measures. Wearing proper Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and using confined space entry equipment allows our field technicians to work safely and efficiently at all times.

Veolia Energy’s district energy network serves the central business district in Philadelphia from three steam production facilities and one chilled water facility. Veolia owns and operates over 26 miles of steam and chilled water piping that current serves over 300 customers.
