Renovation of a library in Waynesville, North Carolina. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a library.

Haywood County is seeking a qualified professional for engineering and administrative services to design and oversee the installation of an HVAC system in our Waynesville Library. The Waynesville branch of the Haywood County Library is located at 678 Haywood Street in Waynesville, NC. The building was built in 1981 and is approximately 26,200 square feet of conditioned space. The Waynesville Library houses an outdated system for heating and cooling consisting of three air handlers located in a crow's nest mechanical space, Carrier chiller, electric strip heat, and associated piping and chilled water pumps. The objective will be to design and oversee the installation of new air handlers with hot and cold water coils, appropriately sized chiller, duel hot water boilers and associated piping, and new automation controls with network connectivity. It is the intent of the County to reuse the existing ductwork and chilled water piping in the building. The County will require the chilled water piping to be inspected prior to reconnection. It is also intended that the selected contractor will be responsible for a short installation window. This facility is currently occupied. A roof replacement project will be planned and scheduled at the same time, therefore limiting facility closure and minimizing the impact to the public. To facilitate construction and completion of projects, the winning proposer will serve as the primary consultant to the County and/or assigned delegates. The chosen company will provide consultation, technical assistance, engineering and planning support, bid procurement, contractor selection, bid tabulations, contract award, contractor scheduling, coordination of contractors, monitoring/inspecting work in progress, inspection and certification of completed work, documentation of contractor progress, preparation of progress reports and final reports, management of payment requests, determining consistency and adherence to project plans & specifications, certification of projects, and project close-out. 1.
