- High ventilation turnover rates
- Water saving plumbing fixtures
- Full mechanical design for 15,000 sq ft expansion

The project was a full mechanical design
of heating and ventilating, plumbing and fire sprinkler
systems for the 15,000 square foot expansion of the
City of Monterey Sports Center with special attention
to interface the new mechanical systems to existing
system capacities.
The extension of existing fire sprinkler
and heating hot water systems to the new expansion
was closely coordinated with the existing building
loads and construction to maintain a continuity of
use and appearance.
This facility was expanded to match the
existing construction as closely as possible with exception
that all new heating and ventilation units would be
roof-mounted to save space and open the room volumes
as much as possible. High ventilation turnover rates
to meet the expected exercise use and to maintain the
building life were incorporated into the design. Water
saving plumbing fixtures and expanded laundry facilities
were also incorporated into the project.
The building opened for public use in
the fall of 2002.
