Explanation
Background:
The work for which proposals were invited consisted of:
· Removing existing AC equipment and boilers and install new.
· Relocating one air handler and rework/refurbish 4 air handlers. Add new coils.
· Installing new DDC controls.
· Constructing new mechanical room.
· Providing all new electrical for HVAC work and mechanical rooms.
· Doing other such work as may be necessary to complete the contract in accordance with the plans and specifications.
Kirk Williams Service Company requested an increase from the original EL010482 contract of $842,000.00 due to a change in scope of work and budget. Changes occurred due to a need to condition the air in the second floor area of the facility when a partnership was established with Nationwide Children's Hospital after construction had begun. Utility lines were reconfigured to take care of separating the upstairs and downstairs HVAC systems as well as installing duct silencers to quiet the noise that the change in systems created.
