'No Heat, No Cool' fall 2017

By 11th Civil Engineer Squadron

The 11th Civil Engineer Squadron will initiate an installation-wide "No Heat/No Cool" period from Oct. 15 to Nov. 15, 2017 to assist in switching heating, ventilation and air conditioning units from cooling to heating modes.

During this time period, HVAC technicians will complete all equipment servicing and startup preparations, weather permitting.

Last year, Team Andrews was able to save $32,240 in energy and natural gas consumption on base. These savings can potentially be re-invested into base operations.

During the downtime, only mission critical facilities, command and control facilities, child development centers, critical server rooms, critical utilities and housing will be exempt.

Patience and understanding from base residents while this is being accomplished will be greatly appreciated.
