A proctective barrier has been installed in the back hall where a hole  will be knocked in the wall for a new door.  This barrier will help cut down on dust and noise while the hole is made and the new door is installed.

HVAC switchover pushed back

Filed under: Uncategorized — owenpriest @ 10:58 am

 

Due to the delayed delivery of chilled water valves we need to push the switch over shut-down for the new air handler back to 7:00 AM 3 June through 7:00 AM 5 June. This shut-down was originally scheduled for the 20-21 May weekend. We will keep minimal exhaust air flowing in the wing during the shut-down.
