Construction of Chilled Water Plant and Site Utility Upgrades at VA Medical Center

The VA is seeking construction of a new multi-story chilled water plant and site utility upgrades at the West Haven VA Medical Center. This project includes demolition of the existing plant and construction of new chillers, cooling towers, pumps, and associated equipment. Site utility upgrades involve replacing fire protection and domestic water mains, and installing new utility main loops for chilled water, steam, condensate, domestic water, and fire protection. Electrical redundancy and new water storage tanks are also included. The work requires compliance with DVAs Physical Security Resiliency Design Requirements and aims for USGBC LEED Silver certification. Construction will occur on an active, operational Medical Center campus, requiring careful coordination to minimize impact.
