Location: Centreville, MD
Expertise Provided: Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Structural

This project involved the complete renovation of the 55,000 square foot one-story building with 14,000 square feet of additions. One of the additions was a new media center that allowed for expansion of the cafeteria and the relocation of the full cooking kitchen. All classrooms were upgraded with four new ones provided. A new mechanical mezzanine was integrated into the existing boiler room. All mechanical and electrical systems and equipment were removed with the exception of two newer boilers. Project features include:

  • 2-pipe HVAC system with new chiller and pumps
  • Unit ventilators and fan coil units in classrooms
  • Rooftop units with central plant and DX coils
  • New sprinkler system with fire pump
  • Indirect fluorescent lighting throughout
  • Multi-level lighting in gymnasium
  • Generator backup for emergency and standby
  • Telephone, LAN, PA and media retrieval
  • Fire alarm and security systems
Challenges Encountered:
  • Designing an affordable mechanical system that could still provide for the zoned temperature control of the areas specified by the owner.
  • Designing for conditioning of administration, cafeteria and library without having to run the central plant chiller.
