Steam Systems Webinar

This two-part webinar awards 0.2 CEUs or 2 hours of continuing education for participation and completion.

This program provides an introduction into the design of steam systems. At one time steam systems were the norm in the United States however over the past 30 years they have fallen out of favor due to misunderstanding and lack of maintenance. Properly designed steam systems can be extremely efficient and reliable; however, both require due diligence at the time of design and throughout their life expectancy. This class will provide you with a good foundation for the proper design of a steam system, how to select the proper components required for reliable operation.
