Project Overview

The Panorama Building’s boiler system was over 30 years old, operating at just ~65% efficiency and lacking system redundancy, creating a major risk if failure occurred. Summit Building Consultants was engaged to develop the scope of work, manage the RFP process, and provide project management and engineering design coordination. Environmental assessments uncovered asbestos, requiring abatement, and the below-grade location of the boilers made venting design particularly challenging. The project was completed under budget, and Summit added long-term value by implementing a chemical treatment and maintenance plan and addressing additional maintenance issues discovered during installation.

Challenges & Solutions

  • Asbestos Discovery: Coordinated environmental assessments and hazardous materials abatement
  • Below-grade location: Developed creative venting solutions with engineers
  • Maintenance planning: Established a chemical treatment program and addressed unrelated maintenance issues

Results & Value Added

  • Project delivered under budget
  • Replaced outdated system with 95% high-efficiency boilers
  • Improved system redundancy and long-term reliability
  • Implemented a proactive maintenance plan for boiler longevity

Client Feedback

  • “We did not know we had issues in some of our old buildings. Paul was extremely knowledgeable about highlighting these issues and how to resolve them.”
