Replace Climate Control System for Scotty's Castle
This project will replace critical heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) components of the circa 1990 mechanical system that services the National Register of Historic Places listed Scotty's Castle Main House and Annex structures. Up to 750 visitors per day tour this 2-story historic Scotty's Castle facility. The project will thermally-zone the facility to improve space utilization, museum storage, and efficiencies of the HVAC system for 14,560 square feet of the Main House and Annex.
The 17 existing 2-ton and 3-ton water-cooled heat pumps, currently past their life cycle, will be replaced with an optimized HVAC system. The replacement system will increase capacity from 37.5 tons to 140 tons and will be designed to allow for future connections to other campus buildings. A new mechanical room will be constructed in the historic Stables building to house boilers, chillers, pumps, electrical gear, etc. A cooling tower will be installed within a new CMU enclosure approximately 175 feet east of the Stables building. Hydronic piping will be installed between the Stables and Castle/Annex building (approximately 1,000 linear feet) in new trench and in the existing underground tunnels. Seventeen air handling units will be installed in the basement of the Castle/Annex building.
