About this file
This is a project manual and specification document for Quincy Community Schools related to the construction of an outdoor walk-in cooler and freezer unit at Jennings Elementary. The project, dated May 18, 2020, was prepared by S. Allen Design Architecture located in Coldwater, Michigan. The scope of work includes installation of a factory-prefabricated walk-in cooler and freezer unit, pouring of concrete pads (4,000 psi for the equipment pad and 3,000 psi for post footings), construction of a covered walkway with treated wood posts and metal roof connecting the school to the new unit, and all associated site preparation including removal and backfill of topsoil. The specifications require the walk-in unit to be manufactured by Polar King International, Inc., or an equal product, with the cooler maintaining +35°F at 100°F ambient temperature and the freezer maintaining -10°F under the same conditions. Both refrigeration systems must operate on 208V/60HZ/1PH single-phase power.
The walk-in cooler and freezer unit shall feature a seamless fiberglass interior and exterior with a 4-inch urethane insulation core, factory-installed fluorescent lighting, magnetic gasket doors with safety release mechanisms, and a complete self-contained refrigeration system ready for operation with single-point electrical connection. The structure must meet certifications from the National Sanitation Foundation, Underwriters Laboratory, and comply with BOCA and National Electric Code standards. Optional accessories specified include an exterior door ramp, stainless steel kick plates, hydraulic door closer, additional lighting fixtures, pressure relief vents, hurricane anchors, and an extra heavy-duty sealed floor rated for 1,000 lbs per square foot load capacity. The contractor is responsible for all general conditions including supervision, permits, bonds, taxes, dumpsters, and final cleaning, with a one-year warranty on all materials, equipment, and workmanship from the date of official acceptance.
