Hill Air Force Base is seeking a design-build replacement of the steam heating system in Building 1515 with a decentralized gas-fired hot-water boiler system.
- **Government buyer:** U.S. Department of the Air Force, Air Force Sustainment Center, 309th SWEG, Hill Air Force Base, Utah. The solicitation identifies TSgt Jonathan Graham as the contact; related project documents also reference the 75th Civil Engineering Office.
- **Primary scope:** Replace the existing steam heat-exchanger system in four mechanical rooms, including demolition and removal of steam and condensate equipment, new natural-gas and hydronic piping, boiler installation, controls integration, testing, and commissioning.
- **Specified equipment:** **Three RBI Futera III boilers or approved equivalents**, three Patterson vertical inline boiler pumps or approved equivalents, and one Niles Steel Tank hydraulic separator/buffer tank or approved equivalent. Boiler capacity must support the existing heating load and the specified redundancy approach.
- **Services:** Design and engineering, demolition, installation, integration with the existing direct digital control/energy management system using BACnet, manufacturer-coordinated startup, commissioning, testing, adjusting and balancing, and warranties.
- **Notable requirements:** The contractor must verify existing conditions and provide design submittals. Project work must comply with Hill AFB mechanical, natural-gas, and electrical standards and applicable safety, environmental, quality, and lead-paint handling requirements. An inspection report for steam-line work found no asbestos in sampled areas but did identify lead-based paint on some metal components.
- **OEMs and named manufacturers:** **RBI**, **Patterson**, and **Niles Steel Tank** are specified for the principal boiler-system equipment, subject to approved equivalents. Additional manufacturers appear in reference/as-built or base-standard attachments, including **Cummins/Onan, Honeywell/Vindicator, Schneider Electric, Hanchett Entry Systems (HES), Adams Rite, Ditek, Trane, Bell & Gossett, Wessels, Ruskin, and Spirax Sarco**; those references are not identified as required purchases for this boiler project.
- **Quantity and value:** The solicitation describes one Building 1515 boiler-replacement service requirement, with the SOW listing three boilers, three pumps, and one buffer tank. The stated project magnitude is $1,000,000–$5,000,000.
- **Schedule:** Design and material acquisition are intended before the base steam shutdown; construction is expected to take about 60 days after shutdown. The exact schedule depends on the base steam calendar. No option years or annual subscription are stated.
- **Notice update:** The latest notice added a solicitation amendment, but the supplied notice history does not describe its terms or establish whether dates or requirements changed.
- **Attachment context:** Some supplied reference attachments contain unrelated historical HVAC/electrical schedules and equipment examples. Those items are recorded separately below and should not be interpreted as additional Building 1515 boiler requirements.

### Description

<p>Upgrade the existing heating infrastructure in building 1515 on Hill AFB in accordance with the Statment of Work. The objective is to transition from the current steam heat exchanger system to a more efficient, decentralized gas-fired hot water boiler system.</p>
