The boiler system in this 30-year-old office building was inefficient. Replacing it required demolition and reconstruction. By replacing the burners and adding advanced controls to the existing boilers, fuel usage decreased by 20%, and emissions were reduced to low-NOx.
Boiler systems today are engineered to increase efficiency and reduce operating costs. Condensing boilers are a popular option because they recover energy that otherwise would be discharged out the boiler stack, enabling them to achieve more than 90% efficiency when operated with the proper conditions.
Industry 4.0 continues to sweep through industry, constantly penetrating and changing new areas of plant operations. That change has finally come to the boiler room. Cleaver-Brooks has launched its Prometha® IoT-connected boiler solution, which provides actionable insights into your boiler operation.
