TST insulation crews have successfully installed custom-made Removable Insulation Covers on steam piping and expansion joints in three manholes located on a 12-inch buried high-pressure steam line on Pennsylvania Ave. Prior to installing the RICs, TST’s sister company, PCS, Inc. provided asbestos abatement services in the three manholes. TST crews are wrapping up restoring sections of the buried steam line by injecting our innovative ConduFill® technology within a 30”W x 18”H concrete box conduit that lies 7-10 feet below the sidewalk. Filling the void around the steam and condensate lines with ConduFill® will drastically reduce heat existing heat losses and prolong the life of piping system.
