As winter approaches, it’s the perfect time to enhance your steam system’s efficiency. We’re introducing two new offers for steam system audits and insulation projects to support your energy efficiency goals and reduce your project payback periods.
Through these offers, receive audit top-up incentives when you implement recommended trap replacements or insulation projects. You can also receive enhanced incentives to improve the payback on insulation upgrades. Contact your Energy Solutions Advisor today to secure extra incentives with these special offers.
Book and implement your steam trap replacement (fail-open traps) or steam system insulation project (trap, valve or pipe) between Aug. 1 and Oct. 31, 2024 to maximize your incentives.
Audit top-up incentives†
Up to
$5,000
per site for steam traps and insulation audits to cover up to 100 percent of audit costs.
Enhanced insulation incentives†
$0.50/m³
Up to 75 percent of upgrade costs,‡ to a maximum of $100,000 per project, for steam trap, valve or pipe insulation.
Can’t make the October deadline? Book your steam trap replacement (fail-open traps) or steam system insulation project (trap, valve or pipe) between Aug. 1 and Oct. 31, 2024 and implement by March 31, 2025 for the following offers.
Audit top-up incentives†
Up to
$2,500
per site for steam traps and insulation audits to cover up to 75 percent of audit costs.
Enhanced insulation incentives†
$0.40/m³
Up to 50 percent of upgrade costs,‡ to a maximum of $100,000 per project, for steam trap, valve or pipe insulation.
Top 4 signs it’s time for an audit
These common issues can indicate steam trap failures or inefficiencies:
Plumes of steam escaping, usually on the roof
Water hammer (shaking pipes)
Condensate pump seal failing regularly
Higher-than-average steam load
Have long stretches of uninsulated steam pipes?

All audits and implementation projects must be pre-approved by Enbridge Gas to qualify for incentives. Steam trap replacement or steam system insulation projects must have purchase orders within the booking timelines stated in the offers. If a project attempts and misses the Oct. 31, 2024 implementation deadline, the limited-time offer will apply as long as implementation occurs by March 31, 2025. If a project attempts and misses the March 31, 2025 implementation deadline, the standard Commercial audit and custom project offers will apply. Please note: 1) an incentivized steam trap audit is a pre-requisite to applying for steam trap replacement incentives; 2) replacement of fail-closed traps and steam trap repairs are not eligible for incentives; 3) steam trap monitoring systems are not eligible for audit incentives. HST is not applicable and will not be added to incentive payments. Terms and conditions apply. Visit enbridgegas.com/commercial-custom-retrofit for details. Incentive offers are subject to change based on budget availability.
‡
‘Upgrade costs’ refer to the difference between the equipment and implementation costs of the energy-efficient option and those of the alternate option considered.
