17 What We Know High School Originally Built in 1963 with Improvements in 1970, 2003 & ,040 Square Feet New Windows, Doors & Reflective Coatings In Place Existing Steam Heating System is Antiquated, Inefficient & Piping Infrastructure Leaks Code Required Ventilation Not Provided HVAC Pneumatic Controls are Obsolete & Don t Perform Rockbridge Environmental Performed Environmental Testing on 4/30/12 ACM s Exist with Domestic Water Pipe Insulation, Floor Tile & Pipe Insulation Mastic at Ceiling Mounted HVAC Equipment in Band Room. Existing Ceilings are Non-ACM s Existing Rooftop Air Conditioning Units are Inefficient Majority of Existing Heating & Cooling Equipment has Exceeded Life Expectancy Existing Electrical Service will Not Accommodate Needed HVAC Equipment Replacement Existing Ceilings Require Replacement Due to Deterioration From Poor Humidity Control Utility Operational Costs (Electricity, Fuel Oil) are Extremely High

18 Project Considerations Indoor Air Quality Issues Should Be Addressed Ventilation Air Should Be Controlled Separately Control Quantity of Ventilation Air Use Use of Energy Recovery Equipment Ventilation Should Be Integrated with Heating & Cooling System

19 Project Considerations High Efficiency HVAC Light Fixture Replacement Quick Payback Occupancy Controls Fire Alarm System Replacement New Energy Management System (Johnson and Trane) Water Saving Measures Capital Costs Payback Should Not Exceed a 10-Year Period

20 Project Considerations Operation & Maintenance of the New System is Very Important Accessibility Indoor vs. Outdoor Skilled Labor Required Availability of Parts Life Expectancy Proprietary Systems

21 Project Considerations Aesthetics Are Important Maintain Current Attractive Building Façade Interior Classroom Appearance Appropriate Equipment Selections Exposed Ductwork, Piping, Conduit, etc. with Ceiling Replacement, All Concealed Cost Benefit Ratio

26 Mechanical Budget

27 Electrical Budget

28 Recommended Project Budget New HVAC System: $4,250,000 Lighting (8-year payback) $246,500 JRTC Boiler $60,000 Total Project Budget $4,556,500 Current Electric Cost: $85,000+ New Electric Utility Cost: $50,000 Current Fuel Oil Cost: $200,000+ New Fuel Oil Cost: $0 Conclusion: Save $230,000 per Year on Utility Costs

29 Energy Conservation Recommended HVAC System Geothermal Heating & Cooling Available Year Round Easy Zone Control Accommodates Outdoor Ventilation Lower Initial Equipment Cost (Heating & Cooling Options) Payback Within 10 Years Flexible Easy to Expand System Phased Construction Pre-Heat Domestic Hot Water Less Mechanical Space HVAC Controls

30 Geothermal Field Five Proposed Field Locations Evaluated Recommend Upper Playfield Tested Test Results Very Good (Thermal Conductivity Test Performed by GRTI Following Test Bore by Richard Simmons Well Drilling) Well Field Locations Considered

31 Geothermal Field Geothermal Energy is heat (thermal) derived from the Earth (geo). It is the thermal energy contained in the rock and fluid in the earth s crust. It s Safe, Earth-friendly & Saves Money

33 Phased Project Schedule What Is A Phased Project? Vacating Portions of the Building for Contractor s Use (Possibly Up to 6 Phases of Construction) Disadvantages of Phased Construction 10 Months to Complete vs. 5.5 Months More Work Around Students Approximate 10% Higher Cost More Interruptions in Services While School is in Session Noise / Dust, etc. Issues During Occupancy

34 Spectrum s Next Step Finalize & Obtain Study Approval Decide Mechanical Option Preferred Decide on Energy Savings Opportunities Finalize Scope of Work (Air Conditioning, Heating, Lighting, Ceilings, Abatement) Finalize Project Budget Determine a Project Schedule Corresponding with Budget & Occupancy Requirements Complete Contract Documents Project Bid Advertisement Construction
