Veterans Memorial Ice Arena Compressors Replacement

The City of Ann Arbor seeks a qualified contractor to replace the two aging refrigeration compressors and associated 100 hp motors that service the Veterans Memorial Ice Arena’s R‑22 glycol chiller plant. The work is turn‑key and as‑built, requiring supply, installation, integration with existing piping, refrigerant charging, controls verification, insulation, commissioning, and full documentation. The project must be completed and fully operational by 1 Oct 2026. • Supply and install two new compressors (compatible with R‑22, future‑proofed for possible ammonia conversion) and matching 100 hp motors. • Connect and integrate suction, discharge, and oil‑return lines; repair oil system; replace pipe insulation where disturbed. • Perform refrigerant (R‑22) recharge, update controls and safety sensors, conduct testing, commissioning, and provide as‑built drawings, manuals, and warranties.
