SCOPE: The contractor will design, procure, and install a walk-in refrigerator on the second floor in room 2A308F. The VA requires the refrigerator to be assembled (panel-by-panel) onsite. The VA cannot accept pre-assembled or one-piece solutions. The refrigerator must be air cooled. The contractor will design an airflow solution that allows the cooling unit to function properly and limits disruptions to surrounding airflows and room pressures. Installation will include all new associated subsystems associated with the function of the units, and connections to building systems including power and data. The refrigerator must have an insulated and heated floor to prevent condensation from accumulating in the concrete slab. The contractor is responsible for ensuring all measurements, power requirements, etc. are compatible with the infrastructure. The contractor is responsible for making sure the installer has any necessary licenses and qualifications to install the specific devices in a healthcare setting. The following is the site condition for the refrigerator in 2A308F. The following will need to be verified by the contractor prior to design and installation. The site condition may be modified to accommodate the refrigerator. All modifications to the site condition must be coordinated and approved by the COR and chief of engineering. All modifications to the site condition must meet industry standard for the type of product being installed, and final finish must match surrounding finish and meet infection control, safety, engineering and interior designs approval: The refrigerator will be on the 2nd floor, on a concrete slab. The building is 3 floors. There will be sheetrock on three sides, making a footprint of 9 foot 3 inches by 9 foot 9 inches (this will need to be verified by the contractor). The ceiling will be solid sheetrock in the entire footprint of the refrigerator (the height will need to be verified by the contractor). The ceiling will need to be opened above the walk-in and joined to the top of the walk-in to provide a seal. Walls, windows and doors throughout the building will be complete and in-place. The walk-in must be assembled panel-by-panel in its final location. Hall and door widths are typical of healthcare facilities. There will not be any equipment kept inside the walk-in other than those installed by the contractor and outlined in this SOW. Internal heat load is expected to consist of lighting, door open, introduction of new lab samples, and transient lab personnel only. The following image provides the known dimensions and illustrates the general path of MEP above. Ceiling height is estimated at 8ft. The ceiling height and final MEP positioning will have to be field verified by the contractor. The deck-to-deck height of the concrete slabs between floors is 12 feet. The following features are required of the refrigerator: Panels must be sized accordingly and be able to be moved through the building to the installation site. It is the contractor�s responsibility to verify and establish this size. The refrigerator must meet all applicable specifications in ATTATCHMENT A � Lab Walk in Specs. The floor must be insulated and heated to prevent condensation buildup on the slab below, and a ramp is required to span the gap between the interior floor and exterior floor. The ramp will not have a handrail and will extend into the refrigerator to minimize walkway obstructions outside and maximize usable space inside. Overall size and layout of the walk-in to maximize given space. The refrigerator must have stainless steel skins on all visible surfaces, with slip resistant texturing on the floor. All gaskets and visible surfaces must be resistant to oil, water and detergents. The door must open with a mechanical mechanism from both sides. The refrigerator door must be self-closing. Lights must be LED, mounted to the ceiling and with a low profiled design that maximizes light coverage and air space inside the refrigerator. The cooling system must be air cooled. Walk-in to have a back-up compressor for 100% compressor redundancy.
