Assessment of systems
Major equipment is in very good condition
Since NAMI’s involvement, several significant issues have been resolved to improve system performance and improve system longevity. (I.E. Boiler/Chiller starts – Short cycling)
Controls are all pneumatic – Regular control issues, leaking air.

ENERGY Review
The total cost of energy for 2010/2011 for the middle school was $82,414 compared to $86,843 in 2008/2009. The cost per square foot in 08/09 was $0.987 and $0.937/sf in 2010/2011. Like the high school, this performance is very good. The building does not have as much after-hour use as the high school, so the expectations would be to operate at a slightly lower cost/sf. One concern warranting further investigation is the electrical usage has increased by almost 16% from 2008/2009 to 2010/2011. This is significantly higher than the increase for the entire district.

ENERGY Review
The energy use at the elementary school is much higher than the other two schools. In 2010/2011, the total cost of energy was $183,188 or $1.53/sf (compared with approximately $0.95/sf for the Middle and High Schools). It should be noted that the elementary school is fully air-conditioned and has a swimming pool and that the usage is down significantly from 2008/2009 ($208,471, $1.73/sf).

Assessment of systems
At 43 years old the HVAC system has well exceeded its expected useful life
The A/C condensing unit is in need of replacement in the near future
Major repairs to furnace refractory are needed in the near future

Assessment of systems
Air tunnels need to be cleaned, some repairs made and measures need to be taken to keep ground water from entering them
Buried ductwork is corroding
Controls are all pneumatic – Regular control issues, leaking air.

Assessment of systems
The system is generally in good condition
Pneumatic Control system with digital front end (Johnson Controls)
The overall HVAC system can be expected to last another 10 to 20 years. Controls, boilers, and possibly other minor equipment may need to be replaced sooner depending on wear

ENERGY Review
Total energy cost for the high school for 2008/2009 was $115,294 or $0.97/sf. For the school year 2010/2011, the total energy cost was $113,355 or $0.953/sf; a decrease of 1.7%. This performance is very good. The electrical use/sf for 10/11 was 5.24 kWh/sf and the natural gas was .39 therms/sf. Considering all of the after-hours use of a high school, the energy costs are well under control and shows the building is well operated. Please note that older HVAC systems may not be set-up to bring in as much ventilation air as required by today’s building codes. The heating/cooling of ventilation air may be a significant part of any building’s energy use.

Recommendations
Replace the temperature control system to make it compatible with the controls recommended for replacement in the 1969 building
Consider adding A/C for the exterior classrooms
Continue to maintain the HVAC system
