ARTICLE S {m} Project: Cary Memorial Building/TOB HVAC Controls Upgrade CPA Category: Historic Resources Amount Requested: $35,000 Amount Recommended: $35,000 CPC Vote: (9-0) Project Description: The Department of Public Facilities is requesting $35,000 in CPA funds to perform extraordinary repairs at the Town Office Building and Cary Memorial Building to upgrade existing pneumatic controls to digital controls and to add new valves, thermostats and software to enable more efficient operation of the HVAC system. Project Goals and Objectives: The goals and objectives of this project include installing digital temperature controls in the Cary Memorial Building that will enable schedules to be developed to control space temperatures that coincide with scheduled occupancies. In addition, digital thermostats and automatic control valves will also be installed at Cary Memorial Building to control individual spaces to Lexington Energy Use Guidelines. The final objective is to integrate the digital controls for the Town Office Building with the new digital controls for the Cary Memorial Building in order to operate the heating and cooling plant in Cary Memorial Building, (which serves both buildings), more efficiently. Project Benefit: The existing Cary Memorial Building pneumatic temperature controls and manually operated zone valves inhibit efficient operation of the heating and cooling system, resulting in poor occupant comfort. The proposed improvements to the system will result in improved temperature control for public uses of the building and in reduced energy costs of approximately $5,000 annually. Funding Request: The project requests $35,000 in CPA funds to be used to implement digital HVAC controls, thermostats, automated zone valves, and software for improved HVAC operation. 18
