About this file

This is an Addendum 1 to a boiler replacement project for Grand Rapids Public Schools' C.A. Frost Environmental Science Middle High School, issued by WPF Engineering, LLC. The addendum, dated June 2, 2026, provides clarifications and revisions to the mechanical design drawings (M101, M102, and M103) for the replacement of existing boiler equipment at the facility located at 1417 Covell Avenue NW, Grand Rapids, Michigan 49504. Key revisions include updated mechanical floor plans showing demolition of existing gas lines and relocation of the 3" hot water return line; new natural gas piping configuration with elevated pressure (.5 psig) serving the new boilers and two new gas regulators to reduce pressure for existing equipment; relocation of existing 3" HWR piping for boiler stack and combustion air clearance; revised boiler stacks and combustion air routing with updated roof penetration locations; corrected boiler pump flow direction symbols; updated boiler piping schematic with specified gas piping sizes; revised curb details with concrete pad construction notes; updated boiler room section; and revised mechanical equipment list to include new pressure relief valves (PRV-2 and PRV-3). The proposal submission deadline remains unchanged at Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. No requests for information (RFIs) were submitted.

The addendum includes a pre-proposal meeting sign-in sheet and detailed mechanical drawings at scales of 3/8" = 1'-0" and 1/2" = 1'-0". The project involves replacement of an existing Smith cast iron boiler with 1,985 MBH output with new boiler equipment (B-1, B-2, with provisions for future boiler B-3), new system pumps (P-3 and P-4 rated at 250 GPM each), a new hydraulic separator (HS-1), and associated piping and controls. The existing expansion tank and shot feeder are to be salvaged and reinstalled. Mechanical specifications include new 4" combination flow indicator and balance valves, new 6" concrete pad, new 8" stainless steel flue stack, 8" PVC combustion air intake, pressure relief components, and a condensation neutralization tank (15 GPH) shipped with the boiler. WPF Engineering, LLC maintains all rights to the 2026 project design.

FACILITIES AND OPERATIONS

Date: June 2, 2026 Project: Grand Rapids Public Schools 2023 Bond Projects C.A. Frost Boiler Replacement Project

Attachments:

Pre-proposal meeting sign-in sheets Drawing Pages: M101, M102, and M103

General Clarifications:

I. Drawing Sheet M101 (Reissued):

A. Misc updates on the Enlarged Boiler Plan Existing showing demo of existing gas lines and demo for relocation the existing 3” hot water return line at stack penetration.

B. Revise new natural gas piping as shown to allow elevated gas pressure (.5 psig) gas to the new boilers. Add 2 new gas regulators on the existing 2” and 3” lines to reduce pressure from ..5psig to 7” WC serving the existing equipment. Re-pipe 2 existing lines from the high pressure 3” to the existing 3” downstream of the new regulator.

C. Relocate the existing 3” HWR piping to allow adequate clearance for the new boiler stacks and combustion air piping.

D. Revise boiler stacks and combustion air routing. Coordinate with the existing piping and the revised location of the roof penetration.

II. Drawing Sheet M 102 (Reissued) A. Updated some incidental piping in the Existing Boiler Piping Schematic.

B. Add gas piping sizes to each boiler.

C. Revise boiler pump symbol to the correct direction of flow.

III. Drawing Sheet M103 (Reissued):

A. Revise the Curb Detail as show.

B. Add concrete pad construction notes

C. Revise Boiler Room Section for new stack and combustion air routing. Coordinate with the existing piping.

D. Update the Mechanical Equipment List to include new PRV’s 2 and 3.

E. Add detail Open Frame in Existing Roof.

RFIs:

Q1. None

Proposals are due, Tuesday, June 9th at 1p. This date remains unchanged.
