Today’s Presentation
Ever Green: The Evolution of Established Insulation Technology
Energy Savings in Institutional Facilities
AMI’s new “Green-Up Project” Approach (slide #15)
Carbon Reduction Case Studies
Modular Insulation System

Institutional Facilities
Bare Components—Here, There, Everywhere!
Unintended heat loss Unsafe working conditions Impacts carbon footprint GHG emissions
Modular Insulation System
3
Why Insulate Components?
Saves Energy Always recommended as per:
DOE ASHRAE Handbook of
Fundamentals, Ch. 23 Components have large surface
areas – more than they appear! Lots of energy loss occurs!
Modular Insulation System
4
Why Are Mechanical Room Components Left Bare?Costly & Problematic
Custom-made covers are expensive
& labor intensive Hard to replace Overlooked in construction budgets Designed for industrial use Over-engineered for institutional
HVAC systems
Modular Insulation System
5
A New “Green” Solution
Ever Green is a patented modular insulation system in “kit” form
Customized on site Installs in minutes Saves energy immediately Quick payback Prevents unwanted heat in/above
space First layer of Ever Green reduces
about 88%of the heat loss. GHG reductions —up to 8%
Modular Insulation System

What Makes it Green?
All natural binders on filler insulation – stays flexible!
Silicone coating is solvent-free, solids-based system
Truly re-usable with Velcro straps – no hog rings, wires, etc.
Modular Insulation System

Advantages
Easy to install— Cut. Wrap. Strap. Flexible – even after heat-up Adaptable – ideal for odd shaped
and “very hot” components Valve bodies, bonnets & stems Flanges Pressure regulators Strainers
Removed & reinstalled by either contract labor or facility personnel

Designed for District EnergyHeating Systems
Temps to 500°F
Water and oil repellent Meets 25/50 fire/smoke rating per
ASTM E-84 Meets ASTM C1695-10 for indoor
applications R-value – 3.1 Engineering specifications available
Example of a Big Saver
Montana State Capitol System
Retrofit mechanical rooms
3500 bare components Calculated savings – “8% of their
total natural gas used to heat their buildings annually.”1

SUMMARY OF CASE STUDIES $49,000 – value of energy saved
Payback – averaged 7 months 300 tons/yr – reduction greenhouse gasses
Equivalent to 2700 barrels of oil saved Equivalent to 115,000 gallons of fuel oil saved
