Capital Upgrade - Replace and Consolidate Existing End-of-Life Air Handlers Units (AHUs) Serving Physical Rehab
Not Started
FY 2023
$34,400
$780,000
22.7
Replace end-of-life AHUs with modern, high efficiency air handling equipment with variable speed drives (VFDs), airside economizers, and DDC control. Most of these air handlers are 20 years past their end of life, have broken or stuck open chilled water (CHW) and hot water (HW) valves, are incorrectly programmed for operation, and are consuming significantly more energy than necessary. There is likely an opportunity to consolidate these into fewer, larger capacity air handlers during replacement. This ECM includes the following AHUs:
• Physical Rehab AHU-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
