II. Technical Requirements:

Part 1 General:

Summary:

Furnish all equipment, materials and labor to install ductless air conditioning/heat pump units at 6 locations in the Naugatuck River Basin in Connecticut.

Existing Conditions:

Hop Brook Lake:

The Hop Brook Lake office is a two-story, standard office with a forced air HVAC system, two exterior compressors that currently provide 30,000 BTUs each for a total of 60,000 BTUs, two air handlers and an oil-fired furnace.

Office building has one atypical area that is worth noting.

One of the upstairs offices does not have access to exterior walls. The back wall of this office ties into an attic crawlspace. The side wall of this office however, ties into a storage closet through a door, which does have exterior wall access. The main distribution panel is 480/277 with various sub-panels. (Please see informational photos).

Naugatuck River Basin Office:

The Naugatuck River Basin Office is a two-story, standard office with an existing forced air HVAC system and one exterior compressor providing 36,000BTU capacity. The Naugatuck office has a 220A electrical panel.

Stamford Hurricane Barrier:

The Stamford Hurricane Barrier is an unmanned facility that has concrete walls. The interior operating room has mineral fiber tile walls which are fashioned to a wood framework over the concrete walls. Please see informational photos for a picture of the wall structure. The ceiling is concrete and is the same construction as the wall, with mineral fiber tiles. The exact thickness of the concrete walls is unknown, but is estimated at 12” thick. There is no asbestos present in the ceiling or wall tiles and the material has been tested. The operating room at this facility currently has oil-fired forced air heat, as well as an electric baseboard. During the summer, window air conditioners are used for cooling. As far as operating room access, access is gained from a steep narrow stairway that leads from the middle level to the upper level. There are several roof access platform areas outside of the operating room, where the compressor can be mounted. The main distribution panel is 480/277V, with various sub-panels. (Please see informational photos).

Thomaston Dam:

The Thomaston Dam warm bay garage is a standard garage with no air conditioning and a Modine unit for heating. The Thomaston Dam has a 225A electrical panel that is approximately 60 feet from where the unit and compressor will be installed.

Black Rock:

The Black Rock warm bay garage is a standard garage with no air conditioning and a Modine unit for heating. The Black Rock Lake has a 220A electrical panel that is approximately 20 feet from where the unit and compressor will be installed.

Colebrook River Lake:

Office is a standard office building with a main office and an attached warm bay garage.

The main office currently has an air conditioner that has been fitted through the wall.

The warm bay garage currently has no air conditioning and a Modine unit for heating.

The electrical service is 200A and two additional sub-panels, which are within 15 feet of where the office unit and compressor will be installed, and approximately 60 feet of where the garage unit and compressor will be installed.

Site visits are highly recommended.
