SUBJECT:
A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT
OF $33,426.80 TO FLOW RIGHT PLUMBING, HEATING, & IRRIGATION INC.,
FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE REZNOR DUCT FURNACES FOR THE
LABORATORY FUME HOOD AT THE JAMES R. DIIORIO WATER
RECLAMATION FACILITY AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO
EXECUTE THE SAME
SUMMARY:
This Resolution awards a construction contract to Flow Right Plumbing, Heating, & Irrigation Inc.
for the replacement of the Reznor duct furnaces for the laboratory fume hood at the James R.
DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
:
None
BACKGROUND
:
In the winter of 2016, one of the Reznor duct furnaces in the laboratory at the Wastewater
Treatment Plant became inoperable. A few weeks later, the other one also stopped working. The
modulating gas valve was the problem on both. Upon calling the factory, we found that there was
no replacement for these valves and were advised to replace the units. It is important to have
these units operational during the winter, otherwise the air pulled into the fume hoods creates
freezing temperatures in the laboratory.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
:
Funding for this project comes from the treatment plant. Funding is available and has been
budgeted, appropriated and allocated to Project No. WWAN04.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
:
Not applicable
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS
:
None
ALTERNATIVES
:
Alternative No. 1 – No Action
Under this alternative, the City would make no improvements to the duct furnaces in the
laboratory. With the duct furnaces not working properly the laboratory would reach freezing
temperatures in the winter.
RECOMMENDATION
:
Approval of the Resolution.
