NJ Backflow Inventory Updated.docx

This is an inventory document listing backflow preventers at two VA Medical Center locations: East Orange and Lyons, New Jersey. The inventory details specific devices used across multiple buildings and facilities at each campus, identifying the manufacturer, size, model number, and serial number for each unit. At East Orange, the document lists backflow preventers located in the C-level and B-level buildings, with Ames and Watts manufacturers predominating, in sizes ranging from 2 inches to 8 inches, designated for either sprinkler or domestic water service. The Lyons campus inventory includes devices at the Chiller Plant, Water Main, and Wastewater Plant, with multiple Watts and Wilkins units ranging from 2 inches to 8 inches, and notes on specific locations and conditions such as missing nameplates on some units.

This inventory document directly supports the federal solicitation H345--F26 issued by the VA New Jersey Healthcare System (Veterans Integrated Service Network 2) seeking annual and quarterly testing and inspection services for backflow preventers at the East Orange and Lyons VAMCs. The inventory provides potential contractors with the specific equipment baseline they will be responsible for testing and inspecting under the contract, including approximately 30+ devices at East Orange and 15+ devices at Lyons across fire sprinkler systems, domestic water connections, and wastewater treatment plant applications. The documentation serves as essential reference material for contractors preparing proposals and estimating the scope of testing and inspection services required.
