Ultrasonic Steam Trap Surveys and Cost Analysis.
Using an ultrasonic stethoscope, our technician listens to the steam trap to determine if it is blowing-thru, leaking, short cycling, plugged, or operating properly. When a faulty steam trap is detected, it will be tagged or painted, for failed identification. A report will be submitted showing the tag number, trap location, type of failure, and cost analysis.
THERE IS A DIRECT RETURN ON INVESTMENT.
