37 Parametrix ENGINEERING. PLANNING. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES TH AVENUE SE, SUITE 100 I PUYALLUP, WA I P TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM DATE: July 28, 2016 TO: Jeremy Woolley FROM: Michael James Lubovich, P.E. SUBJECT: Pre-Design Report CC: PROJECT NUMBER: PROJECT NAME: STAR Center HVAC Improvements INTRODUCTION Background The Metro Parks Tacoma {MPT) STAR Center facility is located at th Street, Tacoma, Washington. The facility was constructed in 2012, and serves as a community center for the greater Tacoma area. Several of the areas within the facility were designed and constructed with no source of mechanical cooling. These areas include the Tot Trek Area, the Zip and Zoom Rooms, and the Administrative Area. In the summer months, these areas experience temperatures in excess of 90 degrees F, making occupancy uncomfortable. Objectives The primary project objective of this Pre-Design Report is to provide recommendations for air conditioning improvements to the STAR Center facilities Tot Trek Area, Zip and Zoom Rooms, and Administrative Area. MPT shall use these recommendations to solicit contractor bids for construction this summer. Existing Conditions A site visit was conducted June 22, 2016, to evaluate the existing electrical and ventilation systems and assess the feasibility of recommended air conditioning improvements. A description of the existing areas follows. Tot Trek Area The Tot Trek Area is located in the northwest corner of the facility. This space has two full exterior walls (west and north) and a partial exterior wall (east). Floor-to-ceiling windows make up nearly half of the west wall, with half-height windows along the north wall and remainder of the west wall. The room has one roof-mounted exhaust fan to ventilate the space. Make-up air is provided through the openable windows in the room and through the cracks around the entry door. The exhaust fan is controlled via a timer installed near the entrance of the room. However, there also appears to be an interlock, as the fan does not run for the entire duration of the timer. There is no existing electrical power source available in the space for new mechanical cooling.

38 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM (CONTINUED) Zip and Zoom Rooms The Zip and Zoom Rooms are connected spaces located on the east side of the facility with an openable garage door provided to separate the rooms for individual events. The Zip Room is an interior space, but is affected by solar heat gain by radiation through the tall windows in the Zoom Room. The east and south walls of the Zoom Room are exterior walls with several floor to ceiling windows along both walls. A roof mounted exhaust fan sits over the Zip Room and provides mechanical ventilation to the space. Make up air is provided via a passive ventilator installed over the Zoom Room. A pass through grille is installed above the intermediate garage door to allow air to pass between the spaces when the garage door is closed. There is no existing electrical power source available in the space for new mechanical cooling. Administrative Area The Administrative Area consists of three individual office spaces, a shared office area, and a break room. Each of the offices has an exterior west wall with openable windows. The shared office area has an exterior south and west wall with openable windows along both exterior walls. The break room is an interior space with no windows. The entire Administrative Area has one roof mounted exhaust fan located above the break room. Make up air is provided through passive vents installed in each space within the Administrative Area. Since the initial construction of the facility, ceiling fans have been installed in the shared office area to encourage air circulation within the space. The passive vent in the shared space has also been replaced with another roof mounted exhaust fan. The new roof mounted fan is a temporary installation connected via extension cord to an electrical outlet located on the roof. Panel L1A2 is located in the Administrative Area and has the electrical capacity to supply power for new mechanical cooling. HEAT ANALYSIS Analysis Inputs Tacoma Design Conditions Outdoor temperatures used in the analysis were taken from the design conditions published in the ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook. Due to the uncertainty of the installed assemblies and corresponding physical and performance properties making up the building envelope, the selected temperature corresponds to the conservative 0.4 percentile design temperature for Tacoma, Washington, which is listed as 86.2 degrees F. Target Indoor Temperature For each space, a maximum target indoor temperature of 75 degrees F was selected for summer cooling comfort. A lower target temperature may be selected, but will require additional cooling capacity to achieve. The temperature of 75 degrees F is a typical target for summer cooling, whereas 72 degrees F is a typical target for winter heating. Analysis Results This analysis takes into consideration convection of heat from the ambient air through the envelope of the building, solar heat gain through walls and windows, and internal load (heat from people and equipment). As a conservative approach to the analysis, convection was estimated during times when peak daily temperatures are reached (between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m.). Solar loads were evaluated depending on the proximity and orientation of Metro Parks Tacoma Pre Design Report 2 July 28, 2016

39 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM (CONTINUED) the exterior walls within the facility (for example, west facing walls experience peak solar loads during the evening). Internally generated cooling loads were estimated during anticipated peak activity times. The sum of these peak loads make up the total cooling loads identified below. Tot Trek Area Results from the analysis indicate that a maximum cooling load for the Tot Trek Area is approximately 35,800 British thermal units (BTU) per hour, or 2.98 tons of cooling. Zip and Zoom Rooms The Zip and Zoom Rooms were evaluated together as one room. Because the Zip Room is an internal room with no exterior walls, the majority of the loads will be generated within the Zoom Room. Cooling this space will make the envelope of the Zip Room thermally neutral. Internal loads within the Zip Room may be induced on the room when the intermediate garage door is closed. However, cool air from the Zoom Room exhausts through the roof ventilator in the ceiling above the Zip Room, forcing cool air to pass through the Zip Room and providing cooling to the space. Results from the analysis indicate that a maximum cooling load for these rooms is approximately 28,800 BTU per hour, or 2.40 tons of cooling. Administrative Area The Administrative Area was evaluated both as one open space and as two separate spaces (one space consists of one communal staff area and break room, and the other space consists of one larger office space representing the three smaller offices). Both analyses resulted in a peak demand of approximately 48,000 BTU per hour, or 4.00 tons of cooling required for the total Administrative Area. Approximately 32,400 BTU per hour, or 2.70 tons, of cooling is required for the communal staff area; and approximately 15,400 BTU per hour, or 1.28 tons, of cooling is required for the office spaces. COOLING AIR IMPROVEMENTS In order to achieve the primary objectives of these improvements, it is recommended that each space receive some form of mechanical cooling. This can be accomplished by installing ductless split systems in the spaces evaluated in this technical memorandum. Because the cooling load on these rooms is heavily influenced by extreme conditions during peak times, it is necessary to incorporate a cooling system that provides maximum flexibility in terms of cooling output. For that reason, it is recommended that all equipment feature inverter rated compressors, or a variable refrigerant flow system, to provide a range of cooling output. Ductless Split System A ductless split system consists of a condensing unit installed outdoors with supply and return refrigerant lines running to/from an indoor mounted evaporator. The indoor unit is typically installed 7 to 9 feet above the finished floor and includes a circulation fan that blows indoor air across the evaporator coil to cool the air before returning it to the space. Energy efficient units are available with inverter duty rated compressor motors to provide variable cooling capacity to match demand and prevent cycling. Metro Parks Tacoma Pre Design Report 3 July 28, 2016

40 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM (CONTINUED) RECOMMENDATIONS Tot Trek Area To provide adequate cooling in the Tot Trek room, it is recommended that MPT installs a ductless split system with a cooling capacity of 3.00 tons. Depending on the make and model selected for the improvement, one or two indoor units may be required (limited by the capacity of a single indoor unit). Acceptable Manufacturer and Product The outdoor unit should be a Mitsubishi MUY D36NA 1 or equal. Refer to Figure 1 in Attachment A for an illustration of proposed improvements on the roof. The outdoor unit should be installed on the roof over the Administrative Area. The indoor unit should be a Mitsubishi MSY D36NA 8 or equal. The indoor unit(s) should be installed on the south wall approximately 8 feet above the finished floor. Refer to Figure 2 in Attachment A for the proposed layout of the improvements in this room. Zip and Zoom Rooms To provide adequate cooling in the Zip and Zoom Rooms, it is recommended that MPT install a ductless split system with a cooling capacity of 2.50 tons. Acceptable Manufacturer and Product The outdoor unit should be a Mitsubishi MUY D30NA 1 or equal. The outdoor unit should be installed on the roof over the Zoom Room. Refer to Figure 1 in Attachment A for an illustration of proposed improvements on the roof. The indoor unit should be Mitsubishi MSY D30NA 8 or equal. The indoor unit should be installed on the east wall approximately 8 feet above the finished floor. Refer to Figure 3 in Attachment A for the proposed layout of the improvements in this room. Administrative Area To provide adequate cooling in the Administrative Area, two independent systems are recommended. For the communal staff area, it is recommended that MPT install a single zone 3.0 ton cooling system. For the office spaces, it is recommended that MPT install a multi zone 1.5 ton cooling system with three individual 0.5 ton indoor units (one for each office space). Acceptable Manufacturer and Product Staff Area The outdoor unit should be a Mitsubishi MUY D36NA 1 or equal. The outdoor unit should be installed on the roof over the Administrative Area. Refer to Figure 1 in Attachment A for an illustration of the proposed improvements on the roof. The indoor unit should be Mitsubishi MSY D36NA 8 or equal. The indoor unit should be installed on the west wall of each room approximately 8 feet above the finished floor. Refer to Figure 4 in Attachment A for the proposed layout of the improvements in this room. Metro Parks Tacoma Pre Design Report 4 July 28, 2016

41 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM (CONTINUED) Offices The outdoor unit should be a Mitsubishi MXZ 3C24NA2 or equal. The outdoor unit should be installed on the roof over the Administrative Area. Refer to Figure 1 in Attachment A for an illustration of proposed improvements on the roof. The indoor unit should be Mitsubishi MSZ GE06NA U1 or equal. The indoor unit should be installed on the west wall of each room approximately 8 feet above the finished floor. Refer to Figure 4 in Attachment A for the proposed layout of the improvements in this room. Electrical The proposed new mechanical cooling has a total calculated load of 74 A. Panel L1A2 has electrical capacity to supply this load (see Table 1). Panel L1A1, feeding Panel L1A2, does not provide enough electrical capacity. MPT staff are in the process of recording actual maximum load for Panel L1A1 per NEC Article These actual demand measurements can be used to provide existing load to calculate available capacity. If recorded results calculated at 125 percent plus the new loads do not exceed the rated capacity for Panel L1A1, Panel L1A2 in the Administrative Area can be used to feed the new loads. Table 1. Existing Panel Information Panel Name Rating Field Listed NEC Calculated Load Notes H1 277/480 V, 3 PH, 4 W, 800 A 737 A Located in Mechanical Space L1A1 120/208 V, 3 PH, 4 W, 400 A 334 A Located in Mechanical Space L1A2 120/208 V, 3 PH, 4 W, 225 A 98 A Located in Administrative Work Space To provide physical space for the new circuit breakers in Panel L1A2, a second section or sub panel will be required. This sub panel should be a 125 A, 120/208 V, three phase, main lug only panel, and can be located in the same hallway or possibly in the nearby Administration Work Room. The sub panel would be directly fed from Panel L1A2 with a 125 A, three pole circuit breaker. The electrician will need to verify required loads based on actual cooling equipment installed. If the meter recording does not verify that Panel L1A1 has sufficient electrical capacity to add the new cooling equipment, a new transformer and panel will need to be installed. The transformer should be a 480 V primary to 120/208 V secondary, three phase transformer. It will be fed directly from Panel H1, located in the mechanical space at the south end of the building. The circuit breaker in Panel H1 feeding the transformer should be 125 A. The new panel should be 125 A, 120/208 V, three phase, with a 125 A main breaker. Raceways will need to be installed to the equipment at the north end of the building. The most cost effective means would be to run the raceways across the roof, with raceways mounted to roof blocks on the surface. If this method is chosen, galvanized rigid conduit should be used for physical and corrosion protection. Raceways will be required to connect the new panel to the rooftop cooling units. The outdoor units supply power to the indoor units. Raceways will be required between the outdoor units and indoor units. If condensate pumps are required at the indoor units, electrical power can be derived from the nearest general use receptacle. The circuit can be extended within the space and a new receptacle installed for the pump. This work shall be concealed in the finished wall. Metro Parks Tacoma Pre Design Report 5 July 28, 2016

42 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM (CONTINUED) COST OPINION The Engineer s Opinion of Probable Construction Cost (EOPCC) for the recommended improvements totals $126,600 (pre tax) and is summarized in Attachment C. The EOPCC includes mobilization/demobilization, furnishing and installation of the proposed HVAC equipment (outdoor and indoor), the addition of a sub panel and other supporting electrical infrastructure, drywall and other minor demolition, and interior repairs and finishes following installation on finished surfaces. The EOPCC also includes an estimate of 20 percent for Contractor overhead and profit, as well as 30 percent for construction contingency.
