HOT WATER AND STEAM DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS : Only natural gas equipment is eligible for incentives. Steam fueled by electric, propane, or oil is NOT eligible for incentives. STEAM TRAP MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Requirements: • Incentives are available for steam traps within a HVAC system used for space heating. For industrial process steam traps, use the Process Incentive Catalog. • Surveys are optional. A customer may apply for the repair incentive only to repair or replace known failed steam traps. Survey incentives are available only once in a 12-month period per steam system. Survey cost must be shown on the invoice. • To qualify for the survey incentive, customer must repair or replace 90% of traps identified as failed. Customer can provide written explanation for a trap that cannot be repaired or replaced and may still qualify for survey incentive. • Repair incentive is only available for the repair or replacement of traps that have malfunctioned and are leaking steam. Repair incentive is not available for traps that are failed closed or are plugged. • Repairs do not need to be made at one time, but only one repair incentive per trap can be applied for in a 12-month period. • Mass replacement of traps can be completed without condition assessment. Focus on Energy will assume 20% of traps were leaking and pay a repair incentive for 20% of the total traps replaced (rounded to the nearest whole number) and no survey incentive. • Steam trap survey and repair work must be recorded in a log sheet and attached to the application in order to be eligible for the survey incentive. Vendor must create and fill in the log as work is completed. Required fields (minimum) : • ID Tag Number • Location Description • Nominal Steam Pressure • Condition of Trap (indicate ONE below): Functioning Properly Malfunctioning - Not Leaking Steam Malfunctioning - Leaking Steam • Trap Type • Survey/Repair Date • Orifice Size (if repaired or replaced)
