Explanation

This modification is for engineering services that include the upgrade of certain aspects of the present HVAC system in order to obtain better control between the upstairs balcony area versus the lower lobby and restrooms at the Adventure Center. Thermostatic control for the north end of the facility (both upper exercise area and lower areas) are via thermostats located on the upper area which causes discrepancies and complaints. Also, the modification will add better air flow control and energy conservation for the two south air handlers with variable speed drives.

Kramer Engineers, Inc. was originally selected for this project from proposals received from seven (7) engineering firms (0049-2009). It was determined that the proposal from Kramer Engineers, Inc. far exceeded the other firms, and therefore was selected based on experience, availability, and knowledge of project site.
