PROVIDE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION HVAC
THIS IS A SUB CONTRACTING OPPORTUNITY
INTRODUCTION
Homestead Job corps Center is seeking proposals to provide design and construction to replace our current HVAC systems for our residential dormitories. The building is currently served by 32 small capacity rooftop HVAC units. Each unit has served a 3-floor stack of dormitory rooms and lounges on an all-season basis for 13 years. Due to extreme weather conditions these units have corroded severely and pose a large scale equipment maintenance and control burden. When the maintenance challenge is not met adequately, the longevity of the HVAC equipment is reduced. The situation gets worse as the units get older. Many of the HVAC rooftop units are either not operational or are performing poorly and need frequent maintenance.
SCOPE OF WORK
Provide design and construction services to replace the existing HVAC systems. Remove 28 existing rooftop HVAC units serving dormitory rooms and the associated electrical provisions. Provide four 15-ton package rooftop heat pump units, each unit equipped with 18 KW electric resistance supplemental heating and humidity controls. Both evaporator and condenser coils in each unit must be factory pre-coated with durable anti-corrosion material. Provide an adequate structural support system for the new equipment and ductwork on the roof. Select equipment that uses a non ozone-depleting refrigerant such as R-410a and meets applicable Energy Star requirements in place at the time of equipment purchase. Provide each unit with power supply; disconnect switch, duct smoke detectors, outdoor air (OA) intake and roof curb. Provide controls for the new heat pump units and interlock with the existing building fire/smoke controls and the center-wide HVAC monitoring and control system. Provide insulated and weather-protected trunk ducts from the new rooftop heat pump units and connect to the existing duct risers at the roof and modify as necessary. Provide test and air balance. Patch and insulate unused roof openings and repair any roof damage.
