Campus Wide HVAC - Air Handlers, Chillers, and Boilers Upgrades

replacement of air handlers, AC units, chiller renewals or replacement, and boiler replacement. Additionally there will be replacement of existing pneumatic controls as required for all of these areas to bring to new digital controls. Replacement of associated controls, support piping, valves, fittings, ductwork, and pumps for the various HVAC units. Replacement of Bldg. 13 Victaulic fittings on all floors will be part of this projects scope of work. An additional requirement will be to bring the HVAC Mechanical Room lighting up to the new campus standard of LED fixtures throughout. New air handlers are to have approximately a 20% increase in capacity over the original units as installed. Mechanical spaces across campus are either in the lower level areas of the various buildings or located in roof top penthouses. These locations will need to be a design consideration when developing this project. Some building penthouses are only accessible by allowing vehicle traffic on the plaza area roof structures so vehicle weights are limited to a gross weight of 10,000 lbs. The plaza weight limit will need to be addressed in the overall design to protect structures from damage. The design team will be required to work in hand with SCC HVAC personal to accomplish a viable design which meets the college’s current systems and maintenance requirements.
