Board approves rooftop‑unit curbs for Loma Linda HVAC project to protect roof warranties
Summary
The board approved purchase of rooftop unit curbs needed for the Loma Linda HVAC project after staff said third‑party review identified curbs as necessary to protect roofing and qualify for certain efficiency rebates.
The Creighton governing board approved a facilities purchase for rooftop unit curbs tied to the Loma Linda HVAC replacement project.
Board Member Marquez asked staff to explain the product during the consent agenda discussion. District facilities staff explained that HVAC curbs are raised frames that provide a level, secure mount for rooftop HVAC units, isolate vibration and protect the roof membrane and warranty. Staff said a recent third‑party review of the HVAC scope found that the curbs were required for the specific roof assemblies at several campuses and that including them ensured warranty integrity and helped the district meet procurement and rebate criteria for high‑efficiency equipment.
The board approved the purchase (motion and second on the consent agenda) with unanimous support from those present.
Why this matters: Including curbs can preserve roof warranties and ensure correct installation of high‑efficiency HVAC units, protecting capital assets and maximizing anticipated rebates.
