Sussex County Community College (SCCC) – Boiler Upgrade

The college retained our services for construction administration, start-up and project close-out services for the upgrade of the boilers in classroom and office buildings B/C, D & E (approximately 40,0000 square feet each). The scope of the project included replacement of non-condensing boilers with new high efficiency 1000 MBH condensing gas fired boilers (two in each of the three buildings) with associated boiler and distribution system loop pumps (VFD), zone control valves, etc. Building D was a steam to hot water conversion with all new fin tube baseboard radiation piping. The existing buildings included: Building B/C (2) – 2900 MBH hot water boilers and distribution system, Building D (1) 2500 and (1) 2900 MBH steam boilers and distribution system, Building E (2) 3100 MBH hot water boilers and distribution system. The existing boilers and pumps were past their expected service life, had low efficiencies and were oversized for the current loads and cycled frequently.
