Pender County Additional Courthouse HVAC, Invitation to Bid # 221024-234
THIS PROJECT IS BEING REBID NOVEMBER 23, 2022. CLICK HERE FOR THE REBID ITB.
Pender County recently performed a large-scale HVAC retrofit to the Pender County Courthouse. Limited funds forced a decision to keep some original equipment in place. However, grant funding is now allowing the county to complete the remaining items. These items include the cooling tower as well as the HVAC unit and exhaust for the public restrooms on the North end of the building.
THIS IS A GRANT FUNDED PROJECT IN WHICH THE FUNDS WILL HAVE TO BE UTILIZED BY JUNE 30, 2023. PROVISIONS DUE TO SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES MUST BE COORIDINATED CLOSELY WITH THE OWNER REPRESENTATIVE.
Pender County invites North Carolina Licensed Contractors to review the Technical Specifications and Plans exhibits provided by Cheatham and Associates Engineers available here. The scope of work will include replacement of the cooling tower. Please note that both the existing fan and existing underground piping (6” CPVC – both return and supply) VFD will remain (not to be replaced). Additionally, the scope will include replacement of roof mounted water source heat pump WSHP-17 including integral ERV to provide HVAC and exhaust for the first floor Men’s and Women’s public restrooms. In order to maintain the warranty on the new roof that was recently installed, roof work (resulting from the scope of work performed) MUST be completed by Hound Roofing. (All communications and coordination to take place through a specific contact provided in the ITB.)
