Hoover Heating/Cooling Bid

Taylor School District is requesting bids on HVAC system upgrades for Hoover Middle School (MEP project) at 27101 Beverly Road, Taylor, Michigan, with bids due September 3, 2026. This is a prevailing wage project. Addendum No. 001, issued August 31, 2026, amends the original drawings and specifications and must be acknowledged in the bid.

The scope includes installation of new rooftop units (RTUs), air handling units (AHUs), heating hot water coils, exhaust fans, relief hoods, and associated ductwork and piping throughout the first floor and roof. The addendum clarifies that steel support is required only for pipe or duct openings larger than 28 inches in diameter; Simpson Quick Frame systems are mandated for all new RTU supports and exhaust fans exceeding 28 inches diameter. All existing equipment must remain operational during construction, requiring coordination across mechanical, structural, and other trades for proper sequencing.

The addendum documents four written pages and twenty revised drawings reflecting changes across architectural, mechanical, and electrical disciplines. Key modifications include RTU location shifts based on structural snow drift considerations, ceiling demolition and reflected ceiling plan updates to accommodate revised supply and return ductwork, energy recovery unit control adjustments, heating coil configuration changes, and the addition of a service platform for RTU-3 under Alternate-2. Cooling functionality has been deleted from AHU-2 in Alternate-2.

The bid bond requirement has been corrected to 5 percent. All work must comply with the 2021 Michigan Building Code and Michigan Mechanical Code. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 001 in their bid forms.
