  • Egan performed in a Design/Build role under a constrained timeline, due to weather restraints and jobsite flooding.
  • Engineering and prefabrication kept this job on schedule, with circuits and feeders crafted in-house and pre-assembly of the ducts helped reduce installation time in the field.
  • Egan also installed the building automation system in just a week, due to the weather constraints. The system required integrating seven Lennox RTUs, installing controls on VAV boxes, and interlocking the kitchen make up unit with miscellaneous exhaust fans.
  • The school is a 43,000 square foot facility with two parking lots and a gymnasium, that is a tuition-free language immersion school (Spanish and Chinese) for K-6 students.
