Keep Your Steam Heating System Efficient

Steam heating in NYC is one of the most popular types of heating methods for apartments and buildings. Boilers are used to heat water and create steam, which then rises and is distributed throughout the property through vents and radiators.

Because the system is simple, it is favored by many people; however, steam heating is found mostly in older buildings that were created before the 1950s. Since most steam heating systems are older, they only have about a 55 to 70 percent efficiency rate. This poor efficiency rate directly correlates to your utility bill. You are using a steam heating system that does not give you what you are paying for.

If you use steam heating in NYC, you should be sure that you are getting your money’s worth. It is very possible that steam is leaking or your steam heating system is just too old to be functioning at a one hundred percent efficiency level.
