Contract Award to Marine Air, Inc. to Replace HVAC Condenser <br />October 4, 2016 <br />Page 2 <br />The first two components on LED lights and control systems will be funded by a Southern <br />California Edison (SCE) On -Bill Financing (OBF) loan and cash incentives. The third component <br />on the HVAC condenser is recommended for Budget Surplus funding because SCE does not <br />provide incentives or loans for HVAC - related projects at this time. <br />The condenser is the HVAC component that receives hot high pressure gas refrigerant such as <br />Freon from the air conditioning compressor. The job of the condenser is to turn this hot gas into <br />a cooler liquid through the process of condensation. The new high efficiency condenser will <br />reduce operating costs by using less energy and extend asset life by reducing wear and tear on <br />HVAC system components. <br />The Notice soliciting bids was advertised on August 08, 2016 on the City's online bid <br />management and publication system.
