JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. –
The 11th Civil Engineer Squadron will initiate an installation-wide "No Heat/No Cool" period to assist them in switching heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units from cooling to heating modes. The start date for this period will be Oct. 7, 2013 and run through Nov. 7, 2013.
During this "No Heat/No Cool" period, HVAC Airmen will complete all equipment servicing and startup preparations; additionally, Team Andrews will be able to conserve ~ 1 mega-watt of energy per hour throughout the period for a savings of $30,000 that can potentially be re-invested into base operations. During the downtime, only Mission Critical Facilities, Child Development Centers, Critical Server Rooms and Housing will be exempt.
Patience and understanding from base residents while this is being accomplished will be greatly appreciated.
