Board told middle-school heating upgraded to ~80% capacity; two compressors to be replaced
Summary
The buildings and grounds chair said the middle-school HVAC system was operating at about 15–20% before emergency measures; rental heaters were installed, repairs brought operation to roughly 80%, and two compressors (of six) still need replacement.
At the meeting, the buildings and grounds chair told the board a recent cold spell exposed problems in the middle-school heating system. "We had some rental units dropped off, put a single heater in every single classroom in the building," the chair said, adding that repair technicians increased system output from roughly 15–20% to about 80%.
The chair said two compressors remain out of service out of six total and will be replaced in the near future. Board members discussed the urgency of completing repairs, and the chair said temporary measures were in place to keep classrooms heated while full repairs are scheduled.
