Replace Steam and Condensate Piping - Multiple Projects
Project Number: 2248.00 Project Description: Scope: $2,298,900
This project wiii replace central steam and condensate piping systems. The Central Utilities Systems of the University of Kentucky have proven to be very economical to maintain and operate. It reduces the construction cost of new building by eliminating redundancy in buildings and reduces the operations cost of new and existing buildings by providing reliable and low cost energy alternatives at central locations. The Central Steam and Condensate system on the University of Kentucky Campus is an extensive layout of underground piping, tunnels, and steam pits. A large portion of this system has deteriorated through corrosion, and much of it is beyond design life expectancy. Condensate returns and steam lines need to be improved. Most of the direct bury steam lines consist of Class A conduit systems, which have deteriorated and corroded to the point that increased loads on the central heating system have been experienced. Repairing these steam and condensate lines will improve the ability of the campus heating system to deliver steam to all campus buildings.
