Massachusetts Hospital Keeps Energy Costs Low with Insulation Blankets
Sturdy Memorial Hospital in Attleboro, Massachusetts, is saving energy after teaming up with Shannon Enterprises of W.N.Y. Inc. and Shannon Energy. Shannon installed reusable, custom-engineered thermal insulation throughout the hospital’s mechanical rooms and steam distribution system.
Since completing the project in December 2017, the hospital’s campus has reduced natural gas use by approximately 8,000 therms per month. The hospital has also seen temperatures in its mechanical rooms drop by approximately 15ºF.
