SUBJECT: T17-037 Lyle Hallman Pool – Air Handler Replacement
___________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION:
That Tender T17-037 Lyle Hallman Pool – Air Handler Replacement, be awarded to
Carters Refrigeration Inc, St Thomas, Ontario, at their tendered price of $443,347.,
plus H.S.T. of $56,635.11, for a total of $500,982.11.
BACKGROUND:
Lyle Hallman Pool has been in operation for 26 years. Current air handlers (2) which
condition air in the main pool natatorium are in poor condition due extensive corrosion
influenced by naturally occurring chloramines within the natatorium atmosphere inherent
in pool operations. The condition of these units is starting to impact the air quality of the
pool natatorium by extension; impacting staff work environment and patron user
experience. These original units are inefficient and becoming very difficult and costly to
maintain.
This tender will replace the two current air handling units with a single energy efficient
unit which will provide more fresh air with heat recovery, air conditioning and
dehumidification. This initiative will enhance patron experience and staff workplace
safety. The work will be completed during the regular two week maintenance shutdown
in September 2017 to minimize patron disruption.
REPORT:
Tenders were advertised publicly in the Daily Commercial News, on the City of
Kitchener website and the internet through the Ontario Public Buyers Electronic
