    Cutting Energy Costs with Compressed Air Audits — How US Gypsum Saved Big with MAC Valves

    In this episode of Better Faster Smarter, we head to Jacksonville, Florida, where compressed air was quietly draining energy and money, from US Gypsum’s operations. Enter Jonathan Moon, Adams' local Reliability & Automation Consultant, who walks us through how a quick, non-intrusive compressed air audit uncovered major inefficiencies in their dust collection system. Jonathan breaks down how switching from traditional diaphragm valves to MAC Valves not only improved performance but also slashed energy use, reduced maintenance, and qualified the plant for a rebate through the Jacksonville Electric Authority (JEA). Whether you're a plant manager, maintenance lead, or just curious about what a real-world energy efficiency project looks like from audit to ROI, this one's for you. 🎧 What you’ll learn: How diaphragm valves leak energy—and money The advantages of MAC’s spool valve tech What a compressed air audit looks like in practice How JEA’s rebate program helped offset upgrade costs Real-world results from US Gypsum’s retrofit 📍 If you're in Northeast Florida and want to explore how this could apply to your facility, reach out to Jonathan or visit the JEA Trade Ally directory. 🔗 Learn more: Visit Adams website - adamscorp.com Email Jonathan Moon - jmoon@adamscorp.com Learn more about the JEA Rebate Program - https://jeabusinesstradeallies.com/find-a-provider
