We all know what it’s like to worry about money, whether personally or professionally (or both). This means (if we’re smart) we pay attention to where it goes — that is, we try to budget and monitor spending.
But how many of us actually stop to think about where our dollar goes after it has left our pocket?
According to a 2008 Civic Economics Study (conducted in Western Michigan), $68 out of $100 spent at a locally owned business remains in the local economy. That same $100 spent at a non-locally owned business (such as a national chain) leaves just $43 in the local economy. And you better believe that a whopping $0.00 of $100 spent online keeps pumping through your local economy. (Click on the image below for a breakdown of what this typically looks like)
Why does this difference matter? Or, put another way, why is it so important to keep our money here in Michigan? (You guessed it, I’m going to tell you…)
When you buy locally….
Our tax dollars to Washington and Lansing are not getting back to us the way they used to. We need to take care of our communities and work together to make Michigan’s economy strong again.
With this in mind, please consider Michigan-based distributors (like us) for the purchases you make professionally. We have local inventory and expertise in the industries we serve. And yes, we’re also sensitive to cost issues; in fact, we believe you’ll find our pricing to be better than what you may be seeing from out-of-state companies. Look no further than Galloup (a Michigan-owned distributor since 1886) for Pipe, Valves, Instrumentation and more!

Here’s a question I’ll bet you’ve been asking yourself: How often are my steam traps being tested?
Creepy how I read your mind like that, isn’t it? If don’t know the answer, you probably don’t have a trap management program in place. We often find that the reason steam traps are not routinely tested is due to lack of resources. You have a limited amount of manpower and money to maintain your system. How is testing traps worth the investment?
Let’s explore this question.
A steam system which has not had its traps tested in the past three to five years will typically experience a trap failure rate of 10 – 20%.
“So what?” You ask. “That means 80-90% of the traps are working just fine. If this were a test in school we probably got a B.”
The real problem lies in cost. Failed traps equal wasted steam. Which means wasted money. In a low pressure system (15 psig) including 100 steam traps, a 10 – 20% failure rate amounts to approximately $10,000 – $20,000 in energy loss during a single six month heating season.
Is your system bigger than that? Higher pressure? Running year round? Pretty soon we’re talking hundreds of thousands of dollars of energy loss in one year.
For the past 58 years Merlo has been working with clients to lower their steam energy losses by implementing steam trap system management programs. Our client base includes (but is not limited to) these industries: automotive, food, paper, power, chemical, steel, hospitals and universities. We can proudly say we have helped our clients save millions of dollars.
Need more incentive? Michigan Utilities are currently offering rebates for getting your traps tested, repaired, or replaced.
Not sure where to start? We can help. To schedule a Steam Trap Survey with one of our specialists, just give us a call at 800-877-6289 or send us an email.
