1.1.2. IJO Number(s): DER190269J

1.1.3. Project Package Number(s): PS 2068

1.2. Description of Work

1.2.1. The contractor shall supply all supervision, labor, equipment, and materials to perform all work in strict accordance with the contract, this statement of work, and identified drawings to install DHW heaters in BLDGS 9135, 9136, & 9137.

1.3. Area Description

1.3.1. Location

1.3.1.1. BLDGS 9135, 9136, & 9137 are barracks buildings located at the corner of Mil Park Ave. and Tahoma Pk.

1.3.2. Known Existing Site Condition

1.3.3. Bldg. 9135 has a failed or failing Thermal Solutions EVA 500 MBH domestic hot water (DHW) heater. The heater is undersized based on the building’s design for domestic hot water. The barrack building is occupied. Therefore, the contractor will be required to provide temporary hot water heating during performance of work.

1.3.4. Bldg. 9136 has two Noritz automatic instantaneous water heaters (hereafter referred to as instahots). Each instahot is rated at 199,900 BTU/h. These hot water heaters are operating at a reduced efficiency and are not able to keep up with the demand of the building. The barrack building is occupied. Therefore, the contractor will be required to provide temporary hot water heating during performance of work.

1.3.5. Bldg. 9137 has a DPW temp DHW unit installed. The temp unit is in place of three failed instahot 199,000 BTU/h units. The DPW temp unit is to remain in service while the contractor installs the new DHW heater.
