3. Tie-in new AHU duct work at OA, RA and SA points shown on attached drawings.

4. Reinstall existing AHU smoke detectors in new mechanical room duct work. Install per NFPA-99 and NFPA-72. Re-certify portion of fire alarm system modified after duct detectors have been reinstalled.

5. Reuse existing fire dampers at duct entrance to mechanical rooms.

6. Provide and install externally located VFD for AHU fan operation.

7. Provide and install OA (outside air), RA (return air), and relief air galvanized airfoil blade air dampers with 24 volt operated modulating actuators controlled through new AHU-1 BAS controller.

8. Replace chilled water and hot water piping within both mechanical rooms as necessary for transitioning to new AHU chilled water and hot water coils.

9. The existing BAS controller for air handling unit shall be replaced with Schneider Electric or Distech direct digital controller(s). New controller(s) shall communicate through BACnet protocol.

All new equipment shall be able to communicate to BAS building through BACnet communications protocol. All new controls shall seamlessly communicate with Base-wide Schneider front end EMCS. Contractor’s DDC contractor shall integrate current building floor plan into new controller(s).
