13 hillsboro elementary school: building systems summary The following is summary of Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical needs. Full engineers reports are located later in this document. Plumbing: Water is supplied by a 4 pipe, which connects to the Municipal water system, and is unable to support future additions, remodels, or added fire suppression system. Water distribution piping in the 1953 portion is galvanized and is nearing the end its life expectancy; replacement of existing piping with new copper pipe is recommended. No fire suppression system exists. Sanitary waste flows by gravity out of the building to the Municipal sanitary sewer system. The sanitary sewer system in the 1953 portion is nearing the end of its life expectancy, and inspection of the existing sewer located below the floor is recommended; replacement pending outcome of scope. Rainwater is collected by gutter and downspout to an underground storm system. The storm system in the 1953 portion is nearing the end of its life expectancy, and inspection of the existing storm sewer located below the floor is recommended; replacement pending outcome of scope. A small warming kitchen exists with a dishwasher with a booster heater, a 2-compartment sink, and a 3-compartment sink with a grease interceptor. Art room has a utility sink with a solids trap installed on the waste piping. The building has multiple gas fired water heaters. One is an atmospheric heater in fair condition. Three high efficiency gas fired water heaters were installed in 2000 and are in good working condition. All are in working order, however, two are not being used. Replace the gas fired atmospheric water heater with a new energy efficient unit. Plumbing fixtures are a combination of various styles and ages, with most of the fixtures original to the building age they were installed and some of the fixtures having been replaced with newer water efficient and ADA compliant fixtures. Water closets, urinals, and lavatories should be replaced with new water conserving and ADA compliant fixtures, and older drinking fountains should be replaced with new ADA compliant fixtures with a bottle filler. Faucets on classroom sinks should be replaced with new ADA compliant faucets. Existing showers are in fair condition, however they are rarely used; remove existing shower plumbing and fixtures. HVAC: One boiler plant serves the building. It was installed in 2014, consists of three Thermal Solution hot water boilers, are natural gas fired, and each have an inline boiler pump. Thermal Solution boiler plant is in good condition and have an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. The inline boiler pumps are in good condition and have an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. Continue preventative maintenance on the system; any additions or renovations may require additional boiler capacity. System pumps were installed in 2014, are in good condition, and have a life expectancy of 20 years. Pipe insulation is of adequate thickness, in good condition, and correctly labeled through the building. Three ventilation systems exist, a unit ventilator, variable air volume handling system, and a constant volume air handling system. The unit ventilators were installed in 2014, are in good condition, and have an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. The air handling unit was installed in 2000, is in good condition, and has a life expectancy of 25 years. The multipurpose room is served by a constant volume blower coil unit, was installed in 2014, is in good condition, and has an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. Owner noted that the room can be very warm; air conditioning or destratification fans are recommended. Furnace serving the office area was installed in 2000, is in fair condition, has a life expectancy of 15 years and should be planned to be replaced. With any renovation, plan to replace the door transfer grille relief system with a code approved system, as door transfer grilles are currently used to transfer relief air from the classrooms to the corridor, and current building code does not allow transfer air into a path of emergency egress. Continue the maintain existing digital control system. Hillsboro Elementary School 13

14 hillsboro elementary school: building systems summary The following is summary of Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical needs. Full engineers reports are located later in this document. Electrical: Existing (2) electrical services installed in 2000, have capacity to accommodate future renovations/additions (depending on size and complexity). Install surge suppression devices on both services. IP phone system is in good condition; no recommendations. Bell schedule system is controlled via timeclock and has no reported issues. No CCTV system is present; add IP cameras and a storage device. Distribution panels were installed/updated in 2000, replace remaining original panels. Consider installation of emergency generator to power lighting, exit lighting, and fire alarm systems. Generator can also be used to power data & phone systems and coolers/freezers. Plan for the replacement of interior fluorescent T-8 light fixtures with LED fixtures as they fail. Provide dimming controls and occupancy sensors for energy savings. Replace existing HID exterior light fixtures with LED fixtures with photocell controls. Replace occupancy sensors that are not working properly, and plan to add sensors in remaining rooms. Update egress & exit lighting to current code standards. Review outlet and data coverage. Given the age of the building, additional outlets may be required to meet current/future technology needs. Data cabling consists of a variety of Cat5e and Cat6 cabling, in plenum and riser rated varieties, and there are 3 data racks with spare rack capacity for future needs. No keyless entry exists; consider adding keyless entry to the building or locations in the building. Replace existing synchronized clocks with a GPS synchronized clock system. Fire alarm system is a mixture of original components with expansion/upgrades as part of the 2000 addition. Plan for complete replacement of the system with a new addressable system with complete horn/strobe coverage for the facility. New system should include duct smoke detection and smoke detection in corridors with open cubbies. School District of Hillsboro 14

45 hillsboro middle/high school: building systems summary The following is summary of Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical needs. Full engineers reports are located later in this document. Plumbing: Water is supplied by a 4 water service with a 2 meter in the mechanical room which connects to the Municipal water system. No bypass is present on the system which is not code compliant. The system is unable to support future additions, remodels, or added fire suppression system. Add code required bypass to water meter. Water distribution piping in the 1965 portion is galvanized and is nearing the end of its useful life expectancy; replacement of existing galvanized piping with copper piping is recommended. There is no fire sprinkler system in the building. Sanitary waste flows by gravity to the Municipal sanitary sewer system. Sanitary waste piping is cast iron in the 1965 portion, and is nearing the end of its life expectancy; inspection of the existing sewer located below the floor is recommended; replacement pending outcome of scope. Storm sewer system is collected by a combination of internal roof drains and gutters and downspouts to an underground storm sewer system. The 1965 portion is nearing the end of its life expectancy, and inspection of the existing sewer located below the floor is recommended; replacement pending outcome of scope. Full commercial kitchen is present, with two sinks with disposals, dishwasher with booster heater,a 2-compartment sink that is rarely used, and a 3-compartment sink with grease interceptor. Replace drain piping on 2-compartment sink and provide grease interceptor/disposal on waste piping. A washing machine is located adjacent to the kitchen in a small utility room. Art room has two sinks with solids traps installed. Agriculture room has a 2-compartment sink with grease trap. One gas fired atmospheric water heater is present with and elevated storage tank, is in good working condition, and is not efficient. The tank is not needed for current hot water usage. Plan to replace gas fired atmospheric water heater with a higher efficiency unit and remove the storage tank. Plumbing fixtures are a combination of various styles and ages, with most of the fixtures original to the building age they were installed and some of the fixtures having been replaced with newer water efficient and ADA compliant fixtures. Water closets, urinals, and lavatories should be replaced with new water conserving and ADA compliant fixtures, and older drinking fountains should be replaced with new ADA compliant fixtures with a bottle filler. Faucets on classroom sinks should be replaced with new ADA compliant faucets. Wash fountains located in Wood Shop and AG Shop are in fair condition; replace existing wash fountains with new water conserving and ADA fixtures. Emergency eye wash/shower combination unit is located in the Chemistry room and is in good condition. F&CE lab has electric ranges and stainless steel sinks with no disposal, and are in good working condition. Showers are in fair working condition, and are rarely used; plan to remove shower plumbing and fixtures. HVAC: Boiler plant (2 hot water boilers) serving the building are from 1965, and has exceeded its estimated life expectancy. Plan for replacement of boilers, and consider capacity to accommodate future renovations/additions. Plan to replace two original hot water pumps; remaining pumps were installed within the last 5-7 years and are in good condition. Wrestling and weight rooms are heat ventilated with unit ventilators. Due to size and usage of the rooms, it s recommended to consider larger air handling unit to service these spaces along with air conditioning. Plan for the replacement of the 1965 air handling units serving the gymnasium, as the units have far exceeded their life expectancy. Anticipated that the lockers rooms do not receive appropriate air circulation and lack of air conditioning is contributing to the issues with stage above. Plans should be made to provide a new system for this area of the building. Hillsboro Middle/High School 45

46 hillsboro middle/high school: building systems summary Roof-top unit serving office reception has exceeded its life expectancy. Plans should be made to provide a new roof-top unit to serve the entire office area. Gas fired make-up air units in the Tech. Ed. areas were installed in 2000, and are in poor condition. Units are difficult to control and are inefficient. Plan for the replacement of these units. With any renovation, plan to replace the door transfer grille relief system with a code approved system, as door transfer grilles are currently used to transfer relief air from the classrooms to the corridor, and current building code does not allow transfer air into a path of emergency egress portions of the building are controlled with pneumatic temperature controls. Continue to maintain pneumatic system as long as it is functional; plan for the eventual replacement to a digital control system that is compatible with the system installed in Electrical: Existing electrical service is in poor condition with several code issues relative to installation of location of disconnect. Recommended to completely replace the electrical service and consider additional capacity to accommodate future renovations/ additions. Review outlet and data coverage within each space. Given age of building, additional outlets may be required to meet current/future technology needs. Data cabling consists of a variety of Cat5e and Cat6 cabling, in plenum and riser rated varieties, and there are 4 data racks with spare rack capacity for future needs. IP phone system is in good condition; no recommendations. A C Cure keyless entry is installed, consists of fob and strike at select doors. Add to keyless entry system as required. Replace existing clock system with GPS synchronized clocks. Consider replacement of CCTV system with IP system and new recording software and storage. Fire alarm system is a mixture of original components with expansion/upgrades as part of 2000 addition. Plan for complete replacement of fire alarm system with a new addressable system with complete horn/strobe coverage for the facility. New system should include duct smoke detection. Plans should be made to replace original 1965 panels. Consider installation of emergency generator to power emergency lighting, exit lighting, and fire alarm systems. Generator can also be used to power data and phone systems and coolers/freezers. Plan for the replacement of interior fluorescent (PL, T-8, & T-12) light fixtures with LED fixtures and provide dimming controls and occupancy sensors in remaining rooms. Replace existing HID exterior light fixtures with LED fixtures with photocell controls. Replace occupancy sensors that are not working properly and plan to add sensors in remaining rooms. Update egress & exit lighting to current code standards. School District of Hillsboro 46

70 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - plumbing Plumbing System Review: The following report is the result of a site visit by Tom Voelker of Muermann Engineering, LLC that occurred on April 12, Site observations and interviews with staff were used in the preparation of this report. The original building was built is 1965 with an additions in 1998 and Science rooms were renovated in Domestic Water Observations A. Water is supplied to the building by a 4 water service with 2 meter in the mechanical room which connects to the Municipal water system. The system does not have a bypass which is not code compliant. B. The majority of the water distribution piping in the 1965 portion of the building is galvanized. This piping is at the end of its expected life. The water distribution piping in the 1998 and 2000 portions of the building is copper. The water distribution piping appears to be in fair condition. C. There is no sprinkler system in the building. Recommendations Water Service A. The water service would need to be increased or an additional water service provided to support any building additions, remodels, or added fire suppression system. B. Replace domestic water piping in the 1965 portion of the building with copper pipe. C. Add code required bypass to water meter. Sanitary and Storm Piping Observations A. The sanitary waste from the building flows by gravity out the building and connects to the Municipal sanitary sewer system. B. The sanitary waste and vent piping are cast iron. Two-Compartment Sink C. The storm water is collected via a combination of internal roof drains and gutter & downspout to underground storm. D. The building has a full commercial kitchen with (2) sinks with disposals, dishwasher with booster heater, a 2-compartment sink that is rarely used as the drains are clogged, and a 3- compartment sink with grease interceptor. No hand sink is located within the kitchen. E. A washing machine is located within a small utility room adjacent to the kitchen. Three-Compartment Sink & Grease Interceptor F. The Art Room has (2) sinks with solids traps installed on the waste piping. G. The Agriculture Room has a 2-compartment sink with grease trap. Two-Compartment Sink Hillsboro Middle/High School 70

71 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - plumbing Recommendations A. The sanitary sewer system in the 1965 portion of the building is nearing the end of its life expectancy. We recommend the existing sewer mains located below the floor in this area be inspected with a camera and replaced pending outcome of the scope. B. The storm sewer system in the 1965 portion of the building is nearing the end of its life expectancy. We recommend the existing sewer located below the floor be inspected with a camera and replaced pending outcome of the scope. C. Replace drain piping on 2-compartment sink in kitchen and provide grease interceptor/disposal on waste piping. Plumbing Equipment Observations A. The building has (1) gas fired atmospheric water heater with elevated storage tank. The heater is in good working order, however it is not efficient.

73 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - hvac HVAC SYSTEM The following report is the result of a site visit by Jason Testin of Fredericksen Engineering that occurred on April 12, Site observations, construction plan review, and interviews with staff were all used in the preparation of this report. The original building was constructed in 1965, with an addition being constructed in Heating System A. Existing Data 1. One boiler plant serve the building. The boiler plant, installed in 1965, consists of two Kewanee hot water boilers each fired with natural gas. Each boiler has a capacity of 3,360,000 btu. 2. The piping and pumping system for the boilers consists of two circuits with a base mounted pump and stand-by pump for each circuit. If the primary pump fails, the secondary (stand-by) pump will provide hot water circulation to the system. 3. There is a three way mixing valve for the system to control the temperature of the water delivered to the system. B. Observations 1. The boiler plant is in fair condition but the boilers have exceeded the estimated life expectancy of 25 years. 2. While the installation date of the 4 hot water pump is not known, the Owner believes 2 pumps were installed in approximately The remaining two are thought to be original. 3. Insulation at most piping is of adequate thickness. C. Recommendations 1. Continue preventative maintenance on the system. 2. Plans should be made for the replacement of the aging hot water boilers. 3. Plans should be made to replace the two original hot water pumps. 4. Any future additions or construction may require the addition of boiler capacity to serve the additional spaces. 1.2 Ventilation and Air Conditioning Systems A. Existing Data 1. There are two systems that provide ventilation for the facility. The two systems are unit ventilators and constant volume air handling systems. 1. The wrestling room, weight room and first floor classrooms are served by unit ventilators. Unit ventilators consist of a supply fan, hot water heating coil, outside air damper and return air damper. Hot water piping is run to each unit ventilator. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 2. The office receptionist area is served by a constant volume packaged rooftop unit. A constant volume packaged rooftop unit consists of a central supply fan, gas fired heat exchanger, packaged DX cooling section, outside air damper, return air damper and a relief fan. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 3. The tech. shop classrooms are served by constant volume indoor air handling units. A constant volume air handling unit consists of a central supply fan, hot water Document1 School District of Hillsboro 73

74 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - hvac heating coil, outside air damper and return air damper. Hot water booster coils are added to the ductwork to provide individual room temperature control. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 4. The art and computer rooms are served by constant volume indoor air handling units. A constant volume air handling unit consists of a central supply fan, hot water heating coil, outside air damper and return air damper. Hot water booster coils are added to the ductwork to provide individual room temperature control. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 5. The band and choir rooms are served by individual constant volume indoor air handling units. A constant volume air handling unit consists of a central supply fan, hot water heating coil, outside air damper and return air damper. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 6. The gym is served by two constant volume indoor air handling units. A constant volume air handling unit consists of a central supply fan, hot water heating coil, outside air damper and return air damper. A room thermostat is used to control the temperature of the air supplied to the space. 7. The locker rooms and locker offices are served by inline supply fans. The inline supply fans transfer air from the gym into the locker rooms and offices. 8. The locker rooms are exhausted by a central exhaust fan. 9. The tech ed shops are served by constant volume make-up air units. A make-up air unit consists of a supply fan, gas fired heat exchanger, outside air damper and return air damper. A discharge air temperature sensor controls the temperature of the air supplied to the space. The unit is interlocked with the dust collector system and modulates the outside air and return air dampers to control the outside air/make-up air brought into the space. B. Observations 1. The unit ventilators located in the original building were installed in 2015 and are in good condition. The units have an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. 2. The unit ventilators located in the 2000 addition were installed in 2000 and are in fair condition. The units have an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. 3. While the wrestling room and the weight room are served by unit ventilators, the spaces were very stuffy and warm. Due to the nature of these spaces, ventilation air at a rate above the code requirements is recommended. Also, adding air conditioning would allow some humidity control in the spaces. 4. The rooftop unit serving the reception area was installed in 2000 and is in fair condition. The unit has exceeded the estimated life expectancy of 15 years. 5. The air handling unit serving the tech classrooms was installed in 2000 and is in good condition. The unit has an estimated life expectancy of 25 years. 6. The air handling unit serving the art and computer areas was installed in 2000 and is in good condition. The unit has an estimated life expectancy of 25 years. 7. The air handling units serving the gym were installed in 1965 and are in fair condition. The unit have exceeded the estimated life expectancy of 25 years. 8. The air handling units for band and choir were installed in 2000 and are in good condition. The units have an estimated life expectancy of 25 years. 9. Since the locker rooms do not receive any conditioning air and the amount of exhaust does not seem adequate, the Owner reported that there are air quality issues and humidity issues. The poor air quality affects the wood stage floor above the locker rooms by causing it to swell. Document1 Hillsboro Middle/High School 74

75 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - hvac 10. The make-up air units serving the tech shops were installed in 2000 and in poor condition. The Owner noted that they do not run the units due to problems with controlling the heat and the amount of energy they use. 11. The dust collector was installed in 2000 and in fair condition. The unit has an estimated life expectancy of 20 years. 12. The Owner noted that the building seems to operate at a slightly negative pressure a majority of the time. 13. Door transfer grilles are currently utilized to transfer relief air from the classrooms to the corridor. C. Recommendations 1. Plans should be made for the replacement of the aging rooftop unit serving the office receptionist. At the time of replacement, plans should be made to serve the entire office area with the new rooftop unit. It was noted that some of the offices currently do not receive powered ventilation air. 2. Plans should be made for the replacement of the aging air handling units serving the gym. 3. Plans should be made to remove the inline supply fans and install blower coil units to serve the locker rooms and offices. The blower coils should contain hot water coils, DX cooling coils and remote air cooled condensing units to control the air quality. Also, new exhaust system should be installed to adequately exhaust the spaces. 4. Plans should be made to replace the gas fire make-up air units serving the tech shops. The units should be operational whenever the spaces are occupied to conform with current WI ventilation codes. If students occupy the space and use the exhaust systems without running the make-up air units, this could be contributing to the building operating at a negative pressure. 5. The wrestling room and weight room should be moved, if possible, to another location in the school that allows a larger HVAC system to be installed to serve the spaces. An indoor air handling unit with hot water heating coils and DX cooling coils would be recommended. 6. With any remodel or renovation, plans should be made to replace the door transfer grille relief system with a code approved system. The current building code does not allow transfer air into a path of emergency egress. 1.3 Control Systems A. Existing Data 1. The original 1965 building is served by a pneumatic temperature control. 2. The 2000 addition is served by an Automated Logic digital temperature control system. B. Observations 1. The two control systems are in good condition. However the limitations of the pneumatic system do result in comfort complaints. Pneumatic systems require frequent calibration to maintain accuracy. The newer digital controls are more accurate and more flexible. In addition, the industry has made such a complete changeover to digital controls that it is becoming difficult to find good pneumatic service technicians. Document1 School District of Hillsboro 75

76 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - hvac C. Recommendations 1. Continue to maintain and operate the pneumatic control system as long as the current mechanical equipment remains. When any renovations to the existing equipment are made, a changeover to digital controls is strongly recommended. Hillsboro Middle/High School 76

77 hillsboro middle/high school: engineer report - electrical Electrical System Review: The following report is the result of a site visit by Curt Krupp of Muermann Engineering, LLC that occurred on April 12, Site observations, existing plan review, and interviews with staff were all used in the preparation of this report.
