Description

The University of South Carolina is seeking a contractor to replace Cooling Tower 1 at its West Energy Plant with a new 2400‑ton cooling tower situated on the plant roof. The scope includes demolition of the existing unit, installation of the new tower, and all associated mechanical, plumbing, and electrical work required to integrate the tower into the existing plant infrastructure. This is a design‑bid‑build project, meaning the university will provide design documents and the contractor will execute construction per those specifications. • Replace existing cooling tower with a 2400‑ton unit on the roof. • Perform full mechanical, plumbing, and electrical integration. • Coordinate with university facilities to minimize plant downtime. • Deliver complete, fully tested system ready for commissioning.

Budget estimate

$2,000,000 – $5,000,000

The replacement of a 2400‑ton cooling tower with full MEP integration is a substantial capital project. Based on similar university HVAC replacement projects, material costs for a tower of this size can run $1‑2 million, while labor, engineering, and testing typically add another $1‑3 million. Therefore a reasonable estimate for the total contractor budget is between $2 million and $5 million, depending on scope refinements, schedule constraints, and any additional site‑specific requirements.
