Two-floor office renovation, Elmwood Park, NJ

Concord designed HVAC, plumbing and fire protection for a two-floor office renovation in Elmwood Park, New Jersey. The design kept the existing boiler plant and added direct digital controls to existing equipment.

The challenge

The renovation reused the building's heating and rooftop equipment, so the design started from a survey of what was there.

What Concord did

  • Survey of the roof, the boiler room and the sprinkler/standpipe riser in November 2023.
  • The existing boiler plant kept in service.
  • Direct digital controls retrofitted on two existing rooftop units, 11 VAV boxes and bypass dampers.
  • Plumbing and fire protection design for the renovation.

Outcome

  • Mechanical drawings dated January 5, 2024 were the basis of the controls contractor's bid.
