Specifications include, but are not limited to: A.Wor-Wic Community Collegeis inviting bids forprofessional construction services to remove and replace the existing diesel fire pump (original equipment) that was installed in 1994.The fire pump serves the Hazel Center (HC), Brunkhorst Hall (BH), the Maner Technology Center (MTC), Henson Hall (HH), Guerrieri Hall (GH), and the Jordan Center (JC). The new pump shall be an electric in-linevertical pump that will serve the above-mentioned buildings. The contractor shall install the new pump and perform related work based on the attached construction documents and related specifications titled “CDs –Fire Pump Replacement -03172020.”B.Prior to the installation of the City of Salisbury’s 500,000 gallon elevated water tower in 2006, the above-mentioned building and fire hydrants were served by the diesel fired horizontal split case fire pump (with jockey pump) that is located in the main boiler room in the Hazel Center. The existing diesel fire pump was installed in 1994 when Brunkhorst Hall and the Hazel Center were opened. At the time, the fire protection systems for the buildings were all hydraulically calculated based on the delivery pressure (128 psig) and flow rate (1,500 GPM) of the existing pump. Water for the fire pump system was and is currently supplied by an approximated 33,000 gallon ground suction storage tank located in the mechanical yard. C.Currently, all outdoor fire hydrants and the ground suction storage tank fill are connected throughout the campus since the college has converted to the public water supply. The existing diesel fire pump is passed its service life, has become defective, and is oversized. In 2019, a fire pump flow test reported a significant decrease in delivery pressure compared to the rated nameplate capacity. The pressure underperformed at twenty-seven percent below the rated PSI.
