F&T's Abdullah Khaliqi, PE, CPQ was recently featured in High Profile Magazine regarding our role in the Kenneth C Coombs School HVAC upgrade. Filling the role of owner’s engineer, Fitzemeyer & Tocci Associates, Inc. (F&T) played a crucial part in a project to upgrade ventilation and bring cooling to classrooms in the Kenneth C Coombs School in Mashpee, Mass. Upgrading the HVAC system, meeting energy efficiency goals, and maximizing the project budget through securing utility incentives were all considerations for this project. F&T’s role as owner’s engineer involves a blend of technical expertise, project management skills, a deep understanding of energy efficiency programs, and close collaboration with owners to help achieve and define long-term goals.
With a clear understanding of the existing conditions, gained from field investigations, F&T collaborated with the town to design an upgraded HVAC system that would improve ventilation and bring cooling to classrooms. The most efficient way to accomplish this was with a Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) System. Installing one with the existing structure required forethought.
