About this file

This document is a comprehensive Statement of Work (SOW) for an Elevator Mechanical Room A/C Replacement project at Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, California. The primary objective is to replace the existing Hydronic Heating and Evaporative Cooling (HVEC) unit with a new packaged air-to-air heat pump system to meet UFC 3-490-26 requirements. The project is scheduled for completion by July 21, 2025, with work to be performed on a single elevator mechanical room.

Key technical specifications include installing a new heat pump system with specific requirements for components such as air-to-refrigerant coils, fan sections, compressors, refrigeration circuits, unit controls, and filters. The system must be Energy Star labeled, feature a programmable electronic thermostat with 7-day programming, and include a fully modulating economizer with 0-100 percent fresh air damper. The project involves precise installation standards, adherence to multiple building codes and standards, and must meet thermal and environmental design conditions specific to the Naval Air Weapons Station location, with summer outdoor temperatures reaching 106°F and winter temperatures as low as 23°F.

i. Pre-outage Coordination Meeting: Request for utility outages at least 15 days in advance. As a minimum, include in the request the location of the outage, utilities being affected, duration of outage and any necessary sketches. Once approved, and prior to beginning work on the utility system requiring shut down, attend a pre-outage coordination meeting with the Contracting Officer to review the scope of work and the lock-out/tag-out procedures for worker protection. No work will be performed on energized electrical circuits unless proof is provided that no other means exist.

j. Utility Locations and Verification Prior to Excavation: Obtain appropriate digging permit from Base personnel through Contracting Officer prior to digging. All underground utilities in the work area must be positively identified by a private utility locating service in addition to any station locating service and coordinated with the station utility department. Maintain all markings during utility investigation throughout the agreement.

Physically verify underground utility locations by hand digging using wood or fiberglass handled tools when any adjacent construction work is expected to come within three feet of the underground system. Use hand digging within 2 ft. of a known utility. If construction is parallel to an existing utility, expose the utility by hand digging every 100 ft. if parallel within 5 ft. of the excavation.

k. Utilities Within Concrete Slabs: Utilities located within concrete slabs are extremely difficult to identify due to the reinforcing steel used in the construction of these structures. Whenever work involves concrete chipping, saw cutting, or core drilling, the existing utility location must be coordinated with station utility departments in addition to a private locating service. Outages to isolate utility systems shall be used in circumstances where utilities are unable to be positively

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 PAINTING OF NEW EQUIPMENT

New equipment painting must be factory applied or shop applied, and must be as specified herein, and provided under each individual section.

3.1.1 Factory Painting Systems

Manufacturer's standard factory painting systems may be provided subject to certification that the factory painting system applied will withstand 125 hours in a salt-spray fog test, except that equipment located outdoors must withstand 500 hours in a salt-spray fog test. Salt-spray fog test must be in accordance with ASTM B117, and for that test the acceptance criteria must be as follows: immediately after completion of the test, the paint must show no signs of blistering, wrinkling, or cracking, and no loss of adhesion; and the specimen must show no signs of rust creepage beyond 0.125 inch on either side of the scratch mark.

The film thickness of the factory painting system applied on the equipment must not be less than the film thickness used on the test specimen. If manufacturer's standard factory painting system is being proposed for use on surfaces subject to temperatures above 120 degrees F, the factory painting system must be designed for the temperature service.

3.1.2 Shop Painting Systems for Metal Surfaces

Clean, pretreat, prime and paint metal surfaces; except aluminum surfaces need not be painted. Apply coatings to clean dry surfaces. Clean the surfaces to remove dust, dirt, rust, oil and grease by wire brushing and solvent degreasing prior to application of paint, except metal surfaces subject to temperatures in excess of 120 degrees F must be cleaned to bare metal.

Where more than one coat of paint is specified, apply the second coat after the preceding coat is thoroughly dry. Lightly sand damaged painting and retouch before applying the succeeding coat. Color of finish coat must be aluminum or light gray.

a. Temperatures Less Than 120 Degrees F: Immediately after cleaning, the metal surfaces subject to temperatures less than 120 degrees F must receive one coat of pretreatment primer applied to a minimum dry film thickness of 0.3 mil, one coat of primer applied to a minimum dry film thickness of 1 mil; and two coats of enamel applied to a minimum dry film thickness of 1 mil per coat.

b. Temperatures Between 120 and 400 Degrees F: Metal surfaces subject to temperatures between 120 and 400 degrees F must receive two coats of 400 degrees F heat-resisting enamel applied to a total minimum thickness of 2 mils.

c. Temperatures Greater Than 400 Degrees F: Metal surfaces subject to temperatures greater than 400 degrees F must receive two coats of 600 degrees F heat-resisting paint applied to a total minimum dry film thickness of 2 mils.
