Kingston, Ontario

Description of the Project
Work for this project includes mechanical and control upgrades to AHU#3 in Building MB38, located at Canadian Forces Base Kingston.

Description of the Services
A Mechanical Contractor is required to replace the pneumatic controls on one AHU as they currently are prone to failing open without reset during a power loss. This results in a large volume of heat being delivered to the North section of the Building.  Scope of work expected to include an update to the controls by removing the compressor, pneumatic airlines, pneumatic control valves and relays and replacing with DDC equipment compatible with existing Delta controls. Also, commissioning and testing will be required prior to close of contract.
