About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document providing clarifications to offerors on technical specifications for Solicitation 15B20926Q00000010, a Federal Bureau of Prisons procurement for a hot water booster unit at FCI McKean in Bradford, Pennsylvania.
The Q&A document addresses five key technical inquiries regarding the water-to-water indirect heater specifications: (1) boiler water pressure is confirmed at 48 psi at the valve with a 3 psi pressure drop requirement; (2) domestic water flow is specified at a minimum of 40 gpm; (3) boiler water flow is 205 gpm on the shell side; (4) the equipment must be rated for 40-120 degree Fahrenheit models (note: this conflicts with the primary solicitation requirement stating 40-140 degrees); and (5) the unit selected is the 40-120 model. These answers directly support offerors' understanding of the technical requirements for the copper-nickel shell, naval brass tube sheet, double-wall tube bundle heater with mounted electronic 3-way control valve and domestic circulation pump. This amendment was issued to provide clarity on inquiries received from potential small business offerors prior to the April 1, 2026 solicitation opening date.
