About this file

This memorandum provides a sole source justification for the acquisition of 7.5 ton Turmoil brand chillers from Turmoil Chillers for Watervliet Arsenal. The memorandum states that Turmoil chillers are the exact replacement for the existing chillers and can be installed by Arsenal personnel, while a different brand would require modifications to the coolant tanks and additional service contracts that would increase costs and downtime. New Turmoil chillers will use more environmentally friendly refrigerants that are cheaper than the phased-out R-22 refrigerant currently used. The point of contact listed is David DiNova at the Department of the Army Watervliet Arsenal.

MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

SUBJECT: 7.5 TON CHILLER

Sole source Justification for TURMOIL OCO-750DI CHILLER

W16H1F321400LL

1. Turmoil chillers are the exact replacement for what is there now and can be installed by WVA personal. If a different brand chiller was used, modifications would have to be made to the coolant tanks to accept the different brand chiller which would require service contracts to modify the tanks which would increase the cost and the added down time by having contractors install. New chillers will have environmental friendly refrigerant in them that will be cheaper to buy than the now used r-22 refrigerant that has been phased out.

POC for this action is David DiNova @ 518-266-4245
