Description
The National Park Service (NPS) is seeking information from contractors regarding the replacement of the HVAC and humidity control system in the Parks Curatorial Facility at Kalaupapa National Historical Park. The project involves the installation of new HVAC equipment, including Mitsubishi mini-splits, and the connection of the equipment to the existing electrical panels. The NPS has issued a general Buy American Act waiver for the procurement of ductless HVAC systems.
Some key points to consider:
• The project is a design-bid-build project, supplemented by shop drawing requirements.
• The contractor will be responsible for producing shop drawings that show the proposed layout of the air conditioning equipment, electrical power, and appurtenances.
• The NPS has determined that there are no existing drywells, and the condensate water from the new units will be piped to the building exterior.
• The contractor will be expected to work with the NPS to ensure that the HVAC equipment is delivered on the August 2026 barge, and if not, the project will be delayed until the August 2027 barge.
