Z--Rehab Power and Cooling Systems, Pinnacles NP 140P8426R0002

The National Park Service (NPS) at Pinnacles National Park (PINN) has a requirement to replace the existing photovoltaic system and rehabilitate the cooling systems at the maintenance and Park housing area. The current energy and mechanical systems do meet the needs of the park. Specific deficiencies include: the cooling capacity of the system cannot meet demand for most of the summer, and the PV/battery capacity does not meet current energy demands, with backup generation from the propane acting as a primary source. This project will directly impact visitors because this system provides electricity and climate control at the West Side Visitor Center. This is a health and safety issue because the buildings can reach 90-degree indoor temperatures during the summer months. Park staff is currently disabling the system at night and opening their windows to cool their private residences. Batteries were replaced in 2025 by the Park and are not part of this project. The Work consists of: 1. Power System: New backup liquid propane generator, rooftop photovoltaic power system with Unistrut mounting system, inverters, battery combiner panel, PV combiner panel, power panel, and all appurtenances. 2. Chiller System: Hangers and Supports for Piping and Equipment, Vibration and Seismic Controls, Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing, Piping Insulation, Commissioning, Hydronic Piping, Underground Hydronic Piping, Air-Cooled, Scroll Water Chillers. 3. Electrical: Low-Voltage Power Conductors and Cables, Control-Voltage Power Cables, Grounding and Bonding for Systems, Hangers and Supports for Systems, Conduits for Systems, Boxes and Covers for Systems, Underground Ducts and Raceways for Systems, Sleeves and Sleeve Seals for Raceways and Cabling, Vibration and Seismic Controls for Systems, Identification for Systems, Commissioning of Systems, Panelboards, Fuses, Enclosed Switches and Circuit Breakers, Photovoltaic Collectors, Gas-Engine-Driven Generator Sets. 4.
