Joint Base Andrews, Maryland –
The 11th Civil Engineer Squadron will initiate an installation-wide "No Heat, No Cool" period in anticipation of switching from cooling to heating modes on heating, ventilation and air conditioning units from Oct. 15 to Nov. 15, 2015 on Joint Base Andrews.
HVAC technicians will complete all equipment serving and startup preparations during this period.
Based on last year's data, Team Andrews was able to conserve 252,500 Kilowatt hours throughout the period for a savings of $32,652 in electric cost and $11,650 in natural gas cost for an additional for a combined total $44,302 in savings that 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. Contact 11th CES Customer Service at 301-981-5151 with any questions.
