- Description
- VAMC Coatesville is soliciting for the awarding of this contract to provide boiler inspections/evaluations on our boilers currently in use. VA medical centers provide critical health care which requires reliable steam supply for sterilization, domestic hot water, kitchens, and building heating/air conditioning. Boilers serving VA medical centers must be reliable, safe and efficient. The age of boilers is often a major indicator of reliability. The VHA Directive 2003-050, BOILER PLANT OPERATIONS, assigns useful life expectancy, in years, to the boiler plant equipment. The Directive requires that retention of equipment beyond the useful life expectancy must be based on an engineering evaluation of the reliability, efficiency and cost effectiveness of continued operation. Following are boilers to be included in evaluation #1 - D-type E. Keeler Company mfg. 1968, 20,000#/hr, serial # 14579-1 #2 - D-type E. Keeler Company mfg. 1968, 20,000#/hr, serial # 14579-2 #3 - D-type E. Keeler Company mfg. 1968, 40,000#/hr, serial # 14580-2 #4 - D-type E. Keeler Company mfg. 1968, 20,000#/hr, serial # 14580-1 The station has 4 boilers, of which 2 must be always be available for service. 1 of the boilers is currently out of service on a long term basis. The most practical phasing possible would be an inspection of the out of service boiler with 1 of the remaining, then 2 subsequent return visits to inspect the remaining boilers. The boiler staff will require 2 days between inspections to drain, cool and rinse the boiler to be inspected. It is anticipated that 2 days will be needed for each inspection.
