SteamLoc® Venturi Nozzle Steam
Traps, Thermostatic Radiator
Valves and Isolation Valves
THE PROBLEMS
Dan Willis, facilities Director for the Jamaica
Plains VAMC said “VA staff were responding to
as many as 25 “hot & cold” complaints a day with
the old leaky mechanical steam traps causing
back pressure. The VA also had high energy
costs and the radiator controls needed repair.
Jamaica Plains
VAMC - 2009
Boston, MA
THE SOLUTIONS
Conservation Solutions Corporation completed a detailed study of the steam “system”
including the steam traps throughout the Jamaica Plains VA Medical Center and recommended
a long-term solution to the on-going steam trap problems the VAMC was experiencing. The
SteamLoc® Venturi Nozzle Steam Traps in conjunction with some high performance
mechanical steam traps were recommended. The Jamaica Plains VAMC decided to proceed
with the project and Conservation Solutions Corporation worked with a Disabled Veterans
Contractor to complete the installation of the steam traps. After the installation was completed
all trap were tested and found to be performing. Steam venting from the condensate receivers
was eliminated. Approximately 1,465 ISTEC thermostatic radiator valves were installed. Over
1,525 SteamLoc® Venturi Nozzle steam traps were replaced or retrofitted, including equipment
with varying loads such as Heat Exchangers, Air Handlers, Radiators, Fin Tube Convectors and
Domestic Hot Water Heaters. Some Velan bi-metallic steam traps were installed in applications
where the SteamLoc® Venturi Nozzle steam traps did not apply.
THE RESULTS
1. Significant energy savings
2. Reduced “hot & cold “ complaints from 25 per day to 25 for
the year
3. Improved comfort for patients and staff
4. Improved ability of staff to respond to valve or trap issues
by installing isolation valves

Water Treatment:
Cooling Tower & Heat Exchanger
THE PROBLEMS
The Comfort Inn & Suites was struggling
with calcium scale build-up and high water
use. These problems were increasing
operating costs and affecting profitability for
the Inn.
Comfort Inn & Suites
Logan International
Airport
Revere, MA
THE SOLUTIONS
A FlowMark Chemical-Free Water Treatment System was installed on the 300
ton cooling tower and heat exchanger. This system eliminates hazardous
chemical use for the cooling system at the Comfort Inn & Suites Logan
International Airport. The biological counts are consistently less than 500
CFU/ml, corrosion is controlled and the water in the cooling tower is crystal clear.
The Comfort Inn & Suites has invested in a “greener” water treatment technology
with significant financial benefits: Increasing cycles of concentration resulting in
significant water and sewer savings. Eliminating biofilm & calcite scale saves
energy, and Hotel staff enjoy a cleaner & safer working environment since
biological control in the cooling tower is guaranteed without hazardous
chemicals.
THE RESULTS
1. Eliminated Use & Cost of Hazardous Chemicals
2. Significantly Reduced make-up Water Requirements
3. Improved Working Environment for Staff by Eliminating the
Need to Handle Chemicals

FlowCon Automatic Balancing &
Pressure Independent Control
Valves (PICV)
THE PROBLEMS
Precise control of the cooling and heating
systems is critical to operating a high tech
manufacturing operation. Dynamic balancing
of flow rates and at the same time having
precise control is the objective.
Boston Scientific
Natick, MA
THE SOLUTIONS
200 FlowCon Automatic Balancing Pressure Independent Control Valves
were installed in the new headquarters building of Boston Scientific. Boston
Scientific wanted precise control of their cooling and heating systems and turned to
FlowCon to achieve their objective. FlowCon developed the Pressure Independent
Control Valve (PICV) technology over 20 years ago and controls 65%-75% of the
market for PIC valves worldwide. The FlowCon Dynamically balanced PIC valves
provided the solution for Boston Scientific to obtain precise control over their
heating and cooling systems and at the same time reduced energy costs. The flow
rate of hot water and chilled water matches the flow specifications for each coil
within 2% resulting in optimal energy efficiency and temperature control. If for some
reason flow changes are required the FlowCon “Green” Cartridge has an external
adjustment so the system does not have to be shut down to adjust flow. Boston
Scientific is pleased with their decision in selecting FlowCon to provide a complete
dynamically balanced system.
THE RESULTS
1. Reduce Energy Costs 10% - 25%
2. Improved Operational Control
3. External Valve Adjustment while System is Operating
4. More Accurate Flow Control ±2%
5. Reduce Environmental Footprint = “Greener” Building
