Valspar Coatings - Chilled Water System Replacement

This project involved the replacement of a dated and problematic chilled water system that serves the process equipment at Valspar Coatings in Lawrence, Kansas. All existing process equipment was to remain operational throughout construction. Therefor, a new chilled water system was systematically installed parallel with the existing system. The system included (2) 125 ton air-cooled chillers with variable primary and variable secondary piping loops. A remote chiller evaporator barrel was included due to extremely low chilled water temperature and low ambient temperature at which the system operated.

Johnson County Parks and Recreation - Heritage Park Maintenance Building

Heritage Park is a 1,200 acre park located in Olathe, Kansas. This new maintenance facility includes locker rooms, restrooms, a break room, conference room, secure parts storage room, communications equipment, offices, and truck bays.

A fresh air system ensures a code-compliant and ventilated environment for the workers who are maintaining the trucks and equipment. Typical condensing type furnaces with R-410a refrigerant air conditioning temper the occupied areas. The site and surrounding parking areas have security lighting that allows the vehicles to maneuver during early morning snow removal and emergency conditions.
