In conjunction with H20 Applied Technologies (Boston, MA), TST has successfully completed Phase I of an energy-improvement insulation project at the Lima Army Tank Plant in Lima, OH. TST measured, designed, manufactured, and installed over one hundred custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RIC) on steam pipe fittings and equipment in over a dozen buildings which will reduce heat losses and save energy throughout the manufacturing facility for years to come. Having removable, re-useable insulation will save the facility money over the years as the insulation can be removed and reinstalled when maintenance or repairs are necessary on the valves and strainers.

In conjunction with the installation of RIC, TST technicians also installed ASJ fiberglass pipe covering on various sections of bare steam piping throughout many of the same buildings at the facility. A large portion of the work was completed safely from man lifts without interruption to the daily operations of the facility. Phase II is expected to begin late 2017 or early 2018.

For over 20 years, H2O has been the nation’s leading water and steam conservation partner. Their team of energy engineers, project managers, and measurement and verification specialists are available to help both energy service companies and private clients audit, design and construct energy projects. Our alliance with H20 allows us to provide energy service companies with insulation audits and turnkey insulation contracting services for federal, state, commercial and municipal Energy Saving Performance Contracts. Together we deliver innovative energy-saving insulation products with the best combination of performance, pricing, scheduling, and experience in the industry.

TST completed insulation upgrades at the Central Detention Facility in Washington, D.C. TST designed and manufactured 22 custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RICs) for steam piping and fittings located throughout the facility. Applying RICs to the bare fittings, such as valves and y-strainers, will drastically reduce ambient temperatures and conserve energy and operating costs.

In conjunction with H20 Applied Technologies (Boston, MA), TST successfully completed an energy-improvement insulation project at the Chillicothe Correctional Institution in Chillicothe, Ohio. TST measured, designed, manufactured, and installed several hundred custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RIC) on steam pipe fittings and equipment in buildings and tunnels which will reduce heat losses and save energy throughout the prison facility for years to come. Having removable, re-useable insulation will save the facility money over the years as the insulation can be removed and reinstalled when maintenance or repairs are necessary on the valves and strainers.

TST and teaming partners Tilt-up Construction & S.A.N. Business Consultants teamed up to perform a steam line restoration project for GSA, which upgraded and restored the thermal efficiency of a section of 12-inch high-pressure steam piping on Pennsylvania Ave. According to GSA, this section of piping was installed in the 1930’s and the original insulation has significantly deteriorated over time. To kick off the project, TST’s operating company, PCS, Inc., removed asbestos-containing materials from three manholes that are associated with the of piping. After the manholes were decontaminated, TST measured, designed, manufactured and installed custom-made Removable Insulation Covers (RICs) on pipping and fittings in the manholes. To wrap up the project, TST crews restored 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.
