AKEA Response to RFI 1

Who is the basis of design on the AHU?

The basis of design is a combination of Temtrol (Tom Barrow Co) and VTS (Nelson & Co).

Are the head walls under the plumbing contractor scope?

The headwalls are specified in Division 10 – Specialties. Base Bid will include “double tier” headwall units - horizontal headrail and bed locator. Deductive Alternate No 1 eliminates the bed locator, resulting in a “single tier” horizontal rail unit remaining.

On page A801 Typical Patient Headwall detail. Are the Air, Oxygen, And Vac. Outlets part of the headwall or are they wall outlets? If they are wall outlets please provide a med gas schedule.

The medical gas outlets are integral with the horizontal headwall rail unit – they are not individually wall mounted outlets.
