I. GENERAL

A. DESCRIPTION OF WORK/SCOPE: The contractor shall furnish all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to decommission, dispose of and replace two

(2) existing furnaces, two (2) condensing units, and (2) evaporator coils. All work required by the project documents shall be accomplished by the contractor even though minor items required may not be specifically mentioned. The system shall be designed to maintain temperature and relative humidity conditions within the building.

BACKGROUND

This project is located at the Henson Robinson House within Lincoln Home National Historic Site, Springfield Illinois. The project is to remove and replace two (2) outdated HVAC split system. The current units were installed in 2007 and have had numerous repairs; the expected life span is 10-15 years after installation. Replacing current units at the maximum end of the expected service life will reduce repair costs and provide for a more efficient operation and uninterrupted service. New HVAC units and components are to be installed in existing footprints.

The current systems in the Robinson House are:

OBJECTIVE/TASKS:

SITE VISIT: Site visit is highly recommended to ensure proper sizing and type of all equipment being replaced.

• Task 1: Evacuation of refrigerant (4-10A) from system will be done by the National Park Service prior to demolition. Remove Two (2) natural gas fired furnaces, two (2) condensing coils, two (2) evaporator coils, and two (2) line sets. These systems support the HVAC in the Dubois House. The existing humidifiers will remain and be used with the new systems. (See Attachment #2 for photos)

• Task 2: Install Two (2) new high efficiency natural gas fired furnaces, two (2) new condensing units, two (2) new evaporator coils, and two (2) line sets. Furnaces shall be 96% AFUE or higher. Condensing units shall have a minimum SEER of 20. Each system (furnace, condensing unit and coil) shall qualify as an Energy Star Environmental Protection Agencies (EPA Energy Star Program) rated system. Contractor shall verify the new system fits in the existing space/location and is responsible for any ductwork modification required to install the new system. Line set shall be installed in the same locations/penetrations as existing line set. Connect new furnaces to the existing flue and combustion air piping. The modification of a system with lower energy star rating with supplementary and/or ancillary

140P6221Q0022 Attachment 3 Page 2 of 19 components to achieve a higher system energy rating will not be permitted. New system shall use R410A refrigerant.

• Task 3: Test and balance the new system to design standards according to AABC (Associated Air

Balance Council) procedural standards.

• Task 4: Controls will be terminated by Alpha Controls and Services LLC prior to test and balance at the Park Services expense.
