Sizing of existing heating coils shall be verified to determine whether these existing coils can be used in the new system. Coil sizing will be critical in all aspects of the project, particularly when converting from steam heat to hot water. Coil sizing changes identified during the design process shall be brought to the attention of Tri-C immediately to assess the magnitude of the associated scope change. The required hot water pumps can be either primary pump configuration or a primary / secondary pump configuration and shall serve to maximize operational efficiency and control. Shut off valves shall be incorporated into the hot water boiler system design for every building to isolate individual buildings in the event of a leak or service-related issue.
