    Energy & Leak Audit

    Quantify the annual cost of compressed-air leaks at your facility based on real kW and runtime.

    Built by Top Industrial Talent for the technicians and service teams who keep compressed air systems running.

    Energy Leak Audit

    Estimate the annual energy cost of compressed-air leaks using measured leak CFM and system parameters.

    Annual Leak Cost
    $3784
    Leak load: 3.60 kW (3.6% of system)
    Moderate Leak Cost

    Leak losses are costing approximately $3784/yr. Schedule a targeted repair campaign to reduce this below $500/yr.
