Location: Eagle, CO

Project Description:

This project consisted of an addition to and a renovation of the existing Eagle Fire Station. Mechanically, air conditioning was installed throughout and gas furnace heating was utilized on the upper level and fan coil heating served by a new boiler was used on the lower level. Ventilation was provided by direct outside air ducting to the air handlers return ductwork with associated exhaust
fans and/or relief ventilators for air balance. To ensure comfortable conditions during the winter months, the fan coils have modulating 3-way heating water valves to regulate the supply air temperature to the spaces. On the lower level, more outside air was provided than exhaust air to keep the office areas under a positive pressure relative to the fire truck garage bays to ensure good indoor air quality and life safety.

Location: Granby, CO

Project Description:

The mechanical systems for the extravagant Granby Fire Station include a high efficiency condensing boiler system which serves the radiant floor heating, exterior snowmelt and domestic hot water heating. A tailpipe vehicle exhaust system guarantees effective pollutant capture and, in conjunction with a general ventilation system controlled by a carbon monoxide sensor, the indoor air quality in the fire truck garage area is excellent. Additional ventilation is provided by an air-to-air heat recovery ventilator which provides additional fresh air and exhaust air in a very energy efficient manner. The 100% outside air fan coil with heating coil for tempering keeps the office areas under a positive pressure to ensure vehicle exhaust and other pollutants in the garage areas do not transfer into the office areas. Multiple floor drains and trench drains with traffic rated grates feed into a central sediment and oil separator as required by code.

Project Description:

The mechanical systems for the Grand Lake Fire Station include boilers which serve the radiant floor heating, baseboard heating, exterior snowmelt and domestic hot water heating. The general garage exhaust ventilation system is controlled by a carbon monoxide sensor and works to maintain good indoor air quality in the garage area. The 100% outside air fan coil with heating coil for tempering keeps the office areas under a positive pressure to ensure vehicle exhaust and other pollutants in the garage areas do not transfer into the office areas. Multiple floor drains and trench drains with traffic rated grates feed into a central sediment and oil separator as required by code.
