Shannon Enterprises Saves $1 Million for University
Shannon Enterprises of W.N.Y. Inc., a designer and maker of reusable thermal and acoustic insulation, has helped George Mason University save more than $1 million since 2009 with reusable insulation for the university’s heating and cooling system. The university’s energy manager calculated the milestone based on annual energy savings accumulated from using a self-contained, reusable insulation system.
From 2009 to 2017, George Mason University’s Fairfax, Va., campus installed more than 725 custom-engineered reusable blankets on boilers, valves and pumps in the Central Heating and Cooling Plant; valves, fittings and expansion joints in tunnel vaults; and fittings and valves in mechanical rooms.
