Imagine leaving your doors and windows open during the coldest winter days. Your furnace would run nonstop to try and heat your house. Your energy bill would skyrocket. Your home would still be chilly, you’d scramble to find other ways to keep warm, and your furnace would wear out more quickly.
Now think of the equivalent scenario in a compressed air system. You should be thinking of the costs associated with compressed air leaks.
In this paper, we’ll discuss how many companies are losing thousands of dollars each year to compressed air system leaks.
