Project Description
The complete modernization of
Grand Mound Elementary School
was phased to keep the school
functioning throughout construction.
Existing split system heat pumps
were replaced by four pipe fan coil
units. Two central boilers and an air
cooled chiller provide heated and
chilled water through a four pipe
system. The entire domestic water
system was replaced by new lines
that run overhead accessible from
mezzanines along with heating and
chilled water lines. New mechanical
loft spaces were constructed
throughout the buildings to provide
better mechanical access to air
handlers that were previously
located above T-bar ceilings.
The building has energy efficient
lighting and power distribution along
with fire and security alarm systems,
clock and intercom, and
LAN/telecommunications systems.
