1. Provide all labor, materials, equipment and rigging to remove the existing 50 HP boiler unit and dispose of it offsite.

2. Furnish and install the new high efficiency multiple boiler rack system (Boiler) plumbed together with the existing boiler system to operate together, or individually and be connected to existing natural gas, hot water return lines and supply lines using flexible seismic connections. The new boiler system shall be a 2400 MBTU equivalent unit to replace the defective 50 HP Boiler unit.

3. The efficiency of the new boiler system shall be 85 percent or greater.

4. Boiler shall use natural gas with combustion air provided from outside the Mechanical Room in accordance with the International Mechanical Code® Commentary.

5. Boiler shall meet the requirements of ASME Code Section IV and be manufactured within an ISO 9001 certified facility.

The building utilizes an existing Alerton building control system. The new boiler system shall be connected/controlled by the Alerton System.

10. Boiler shall be designed to assure complete combustion, clean firing, unrestricted gas flow, low heat release, smooth starts and quiet operation.

11. Boiler shall be completely assembled.

12. Furnish boiler with burner controls, low water cut-offs and relief valves as needed.
