Belimo Energy Valve Savings Estimator Tool
Belimo has developed the Energy Savings Estimator to illustrate the annual dollar and energy savings you can expect by installing an Energy Valve. Download the estimator and view your potential savings.
Citizen Plaza Reduced District Energy Chilled Water Usage by 49%
Citizens Plaza, a state office building, experienced high utility thermal inefficiency charges from Metro Nashville District Energy System due to low Delta T and over-pumping. After the install and operation of 15 Belimo Energy Valves, the average flow through the building during full occupancy reduced by over 200 GPM [12.6 l/s] versus the previous year with original globe valves. As a result of the retrofit project, Belimo Energy Valves reduced chilled water pumping by 49%, which equated to about $23,000 in annual savings. Download the complete success story.
