The Carman Hall project will provide mechanical upgrade and hazardous material removal for the existing building at Lehman College Campus. The scope of work is to replace fan coils and unit ventilator units which have exceeded their life expectancy with new units that include energy recovery, EC motors and fresh air ventilation levels with controls for the mechanical systems that will integrate into the campus-wide BMS system. Heat exchangers, water pumps equipped with VFDs, and dual temperature water piping from the risers to the FCs are also part of the scope. To facilitate the new VAV duct systems and the new FCUs on the affected floors, new accessible ceilings in corridors and in some perimeter, rooms will be specified for replacement of existing ceilings. Where fan coils are being removed, the flooring will be replaced to avoid unsightly patch. The building is occupied, and the renovation work will require the construction to be phased and coordinated with the ongoing classes and administrative operations of the Carman Hall facility. The project will also bring the Mechanical systems at the building up to the current NYC Building Code requirements while also adhering to the current NYC Energy Code standards.
