Heat -.publi.c Safety Bu~.ldin~
Last. winter there ~as a problem with the heating system in the
Publ=c Safety Buildzng. In cold weather only pdrt of the building
would receive heat. If part of the building was shut off then the
cold part would receive heat. The zone valves, thermostats and air
eliminators were checked and appeared to be working. One main pump
was flow tested and appeared to be pumping less than it was
designed for. Both main pumps were replaced last summer and the
system seemed to be operating satisfactorily. However, during the
first cold weather this winter the problem returned.
After much discussion with several people it was decided that the
system should be balanced which was never done. We got a proposal
from one balancing firm. He said the balancing valves should be
replaced since they are now obsolete and very difficult to
accurately set.
We have two proposals for replacing the valves and I have requested
another for balancing the system.
After balancing, we need to get Honeywell in to
controls which has not been done for several years.

Also, one of the pumps for the compressor is leaking oil and will
probably need to be rebuilt.
Funds are needed for the following:
Change balancing valves (lower of two bids)
Balance system (only bid received, I am waiting
on another)
Honeywell controls (est/mate)
Rebuild compression pump (estimate)
