Demonstration Site 10-8-09 Edits
This Demonstration Site will allow you to review the current version of the BestPractices Steam Tool Introduction Training.
The training course has been converted from the current webcast format to a web-based format to facilitate more opportunities for the training event and to expand the audience past the SavEnergy Now participants.
This training course will provide an overview of the BestPractices Steam Tool Suite which consists of:
- Steam System Scoping Tool
- Steam System Assessment Tool
- 3EPlus Insulation Tool.
The training course will begin with a navigational tutorial to guide you on how to move through the three modules.
A quick reference guide is available for download here: quick_reference.pdf
Each module will demonstrate the capability of one tool and its interactions with the other tools. Interactive quizzes will be used to test your basic understanding of the tools after you complete the course.
