Title
OPHFC Pool Heaters Replacement - Proposal
History
Based on recent evaluations at the Orland Park Health and Fitness Center (OPHFC), the existing lap pool and therapy pool heaters are in need of replacement. These units are over 18 years old with a factory life expectancy of 15-20 years.
To coincide with other planned work in the pool area and minimize customer impact, staff requested proposals for the replacements. Proposals were received from CTS Group of Chicago, Illinois - $48,680, TNR Mechanical, LLC of Bensenville, Illinois - $30,526 and Platinum-Poolcare Aquatech, Ltd. of Wheeling, Illinois - $58,875. In reviewing the proposals it was determined that TNR Mechanical did not meet the prevailing wage requirement and has been disqualified. Based on cost and to take advantage of other planned work by CTS Group at the OPHFC, staff recommends accepting the proposal from CTS Group of Chicago, Illinois.
The pool heater replacements were tentatively scheduled for replacement in the FY19 Budget. Funding for the replacement heaters has been identified through FY18 budget savings on the Men’s sauna replacement ($20,000) completed by Power Wellness staff and exercise equipment purchase savings.
On April 16, 2018, this item was reviewed by the Public Works Committee and recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
Funding is available in 010-1700-443100 and 283-4006-460180.

And
