This group of school building projects represents the Sarno administration’s continued dedicated efforts to improving conditions in our public schools and enhancing the educational environment for our students and school community.
Mayor Sarno states, "I want to thank SPS Superintendent Dr. Sonia Dinnall, Parks and Facilities Executive Director Tom Ashe, Director of Buildings and Facilities Jon Carignan, SPS CFO Pat Roach and the team at Siemens for their efforts in upgrading and enhancing our schools. These improvements will help our students and teachers excel both in and out of the classroom. Warner is one of over a dozen school buildings that has undergone, or will undergo, HVAC upgrades. Upgrade work at Warner included Dual temp conversion, Automation, Building Envelope, Electrical Upgrade, Chiller upgrade. I also want to highlight the new playground equipment that was installed at Warner for our students using much-needed ESSER funds."
At 10 school sites, all existing original HVAC infrastructure was removed and replaced with a modern code compliant system that produces both heat and AC. The new equipment installed meets all of today’s modern standards for ventilation in school buildings. The systems feature high efficiency, condensing boilers, classroom unit ventilators, and air-cooled chillers. At approximately seven additional sites, the city replaced terminal units, including roof, rooftop units, and air handlers to provide gymnasiums with air conditioning.
