6/8-6/19/2020: Planned natural gas shutdown at Research Way Lab Building

Posted on by

As part of the Research Way Lab Building Renovation Project, a planned shutdown of the natural gas that currently serves the boiler room and two roof top units at the Research Way Lab Building will occur. The RTU’s are: RAC-3 provides heating and cooling to Lab 2038 area and will not affect any current occupants. RAC-5 provides heating and cooling to Lab 1169/1169A. With the warmer temperatures, this may not be an issue, but we do have a temporary work around for heating these spaces, should it be needed. This system should only be out of service on the heating side for approximately 2 hours on the day the subcontractor does the swap for this unit. The contractor will keep the 1169/1169A occupants informed on timing.

For questions or comments on this closure, contact Construction Manager Amy Keene at 541-214-1038.
