Justification

This project implements the recommendations of the campus utilities master plan (12/12, and 2/13) and campus facilities master plan update (6/18). The campus' existing heating and cooling equipment is typically 20-30 years old and beyond its useful economic life. Due to the age of the equipment and increasing maintenance problems and costs, each campus is experiencing a significant increase in mechanical system problems and heating/cooling outages. Based on a life cycle cost analysis, the installation of a central heating/cooling plant offers significant equipment replacement, energy and maintenance savings to the College.
