Our air experts at Fluid-Aire Dynamics will identify system improvements that could shave thousands off your compressed air energy bills. We use a proven and repeatable compressed air audit procedure based on data from your current operations. Your compressed air audit report will outline clear and understandable recommendations for improving the reliability and efficiency of your system. We'll help you:
The typical compressed air system loses between 20-35% of compressed air to leaks, although more than 50% is not uncommon. These leaks may be costing your facility hundreds or thousands of dollars in excess energy costs. An air leak audit can help you find these hidden leaks so you can cut energy waste and save precious air, energy, and money. Energy incentives from your power company may pay for the entire cost of your air audit and leak repair.
The compressed air system efficiency audit is the place to start before making any changes, upgrades, or improvements to your air system. We use data logging and other air audit procedures to analyze system performance. When your audit has been completed, you will clearly understand the factors that impact your system performance.
Amperage data logging is a simple and non-invasive data logging method. By attaching an amperage recorder on the compressor controls, we can determine your peak and average air demand, the duty cycle of your compressor, energy consumption, and other key aspects of system performance.
Flow meters are used to measure how much air the compressor is producing in cubic feet per minute (CFM), which provides insights into compressor performance, demand patterns, and whether compressor capacity meets demand. Flow metering can also be used to help estimate leak rates for the system.
Pressure loggers are used to measure the pressure produced by the compressor (in pounds per square inch, or PSI). By attaching pressure meters at various points in the compressed air distribution system, we can determine the PSI at each point of use and where you are experiencing pressure drop across the system.

Do you know if your compressed air system is costing you too much money in energy bills? Compressed air is the fourth and most costly utility in manufacturing facilities. A compressed air efficiency audit will help you save money, reduce maintenance, improve your energy footprint, and guarantee consistent, reliable performance for your compressed air system. We are the compressed air experts in the Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Detroit, and Philadelphia in 90-mile radii from our service facilities.
Our highly skilled and qualified technicians are experts in collecting and analyzing data from your compressed air system. They utilize their in-depth knowledge to accurately interpret system performance, ensuring you get the most reliable and efficient service.
Our Compressed Air Audits provide clear, easy-to-understand, and actionable information. The detailed report outlines key findings and recommendations, empowering you to make informed decisions and implement effective strategies for optimizing your compressed air system.
We don't just audit; we partner with you for the long term. Our team assists in qualifying for energy incentives, potentially covering part or all of your audit and upgrade costs. We handle the paperwork, too, ensuring a smooth process.
Our certified auditors evaluate all major air compressor brands to optimize performance, identify inefficiencies, and recommend cost-saving upgrades for your system. Through detailed analysis of energy consumption, maintenance records, and operational patterns, we uncover opportunities to reduce operating costs by up to 30%. Every audit includes a comprehensive report with prioritized recommendations and ROI calculations.
We recommend that your air compressor and compressed air system components be inspected at least annually. However, larger data logging studies to evaluate total air usage, peak demand and energy use may be performed less frequently.
Engineering firms may charge anywhere from a few hundred dollars to up to $10,000 depending on the types of assessments performed and the complexity of the compressed air system. The outcomes of a compressed air system audit are well worth the costs, however. And in some cases, your energy company may pick up the bill.
The audit will help you identify opportunities for energy savings and optimize your system for current and future demand. You should expect:
A typical data-logging study will take about two to three weeks and will not require any downtime on your part. We simply hook the data logging devices to your system, come back and get them one to two weeks later, and then run your report. The full report and audit results will take about one week after the data has been retrieved.
