, IFA Nurseries in Klamath Falls grows top quality conifer tree seedlings for reforestation– about 6.5 million of them every year.. Keeping numerous seedlings at just the right temperature level is not only a challenge but critical for service. When the boilers in 2 of the nurserys greenhouses were no longer up to the task, IFA Nurseries turned to CR Combustion, which recommended changing them with brand-new high-efficiency natural gas condensing designs.
” The brand-new boilers offer a much more even temperature, and theyre extremely reliable due to the fact that they have built-in redundancy,” said Jacky Friedman, plant manager. “Each boiler has several units or modules. That effectiveness job is saving IFA Nurseries an approximated $25,700 in yearly energy operating costs.
” Were rather delighted with the result,” stated Friedman. “The boilers always provide sufficient heat no matter the outdoors temperature level. We can keep track of and control them remotely 24/7. Were currently going over updating the boilers in our other two greenhouses.”
The task exercised so well that word got out within IFA Nurseries household of facilities. It wasnt long prior to CR Combustion worked with IFAs Aurora facility to change its old boilers, which had dripping fire tubes, with brand-new high-efficiency condensing design. That task cut the Aurora nurserys yearly gas costs by an approximated $14,500.
