These reductions will help hospitals to attain long-term sustain- able and cost-effective operation. One effective energy conservation strategy is identifying all in- stalled steam traps and developing a steam trap maintenance pro- gram. The DOE estimates facilities that have not checked their steam traps in 5 years operate 20% of their trap population in a failed condition. Developing a steam trap program can help pre- vent the incremental inc
