SUBJECT:
HVAC Improvements in Terminal A at the San Antonio International Airport
SUMMARY:
This Ordinance authorizes a Job Order Contract (JOC) with Mechanical Technical Services (MTECH) for the installation of three return air fans in the north concourse of Terminal A of the San Antonio International Airport in order to improve the temperature control in the area. The proposal is in the amount of $120,864.43 and will be funded by Airport Operating and Maintenance Fund.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In October 2017, City Council authorized a JOC with MTECH to provide rapid and reliable HVAC services at the various facilities located within the San Antonio Airport System to augment existing Aviation staff on an "as-needed" basis. MTECH furnishes the labor, supervision, tools, equipment, and parts to maintain and repair HVAC systems to include components, or sub-components, such as air handling units, chillers, cooling towers, compressors, actuators, exhaust fans, controls, split systems, boilers, and heat coils.
The temperature controls for areas in the north concourse of Terminal A are not functioning as they should. In order to improve their function, three air return fans are being installed to improve the function of the air handlers and the temperature control for gates A8 through A13. This work will enhance the customer experience for those passengers waiting in the gate areas.
