Introduction WHARTON OPERATIONS 3

Explanation • Why are we doing this project? o Continuation of the air handling equipment upgrade work within SHDH that has been completed over the last two summers. o Historically, SHDH has had multiple HVAC issues, a common theme is problems maintaining a comfortable temperature in the building. o This phase will complete the HVAC upgrade work for all SHDH; all systems will be more efficient and better serviceable with more accurate controls technology.
