Improving Efficiency Without Disruption
Tuckahoe, NYConsulate on the Park
Consulate on the Park is a condominium complex, built in 1970, comprising four 5-story, 52-unit buildings. Each building has its own boiler plant, with gas-fired boilers that generated both heating hot water and domestic hot water. The project consisted of replacing steel fire-tube boilers with more efficient cast iron sectional boilers. The boiler circulating pumps, combustion air fans and automatic temperature controls were upgraded as well, to incorporate new energy code requirements such as outdoor air temperature reset of hot water supply temperature.
The project was completed over the summer months, with the work phased such that no building was left without domestic hot water, while demolition work proceeded. All boiler room heating and domestic water piping, including existing-to-remain, was re-insulated to current energy code requirements.
