Roland Park Elementary/Middle School HVAC System Design

The scope of this project was to renovate and upgrade the HVAC systems at Roland Park Elementary/Middle School. After extensive field investigations, a feasibility study was performed to determine the extent of replacements and upgrades needed for the HVAC systems, as well as recommendations as to how to accomplish this within the project budget. The scope of work included the design and specification of a variable refrigerant flow system to provide air conditioning to classrooms, computer rooms and other ancillary spaces which were not air conditioned under the existing building chilled water system. Work also included the removal and replacement of the existing cooling tower, electrical service upgrade and design of new distribution panels to feed new air conditioning units. Design also expanded the capacity of the chilled water system using a new 200-ton air cooled chiller; along with the replacement of chilled water pumps, and nine associated air handling units. The chilled water system capacity was increased to provide air conditioning in the newer gymnasium as well as the auditorium (old gymnasium). The gymnasium and auditorium design included new air handlers and duct distribution.
