The housing must be upgraded to meet current life/safety codes, building code and AF standards to provide modern, comfortable and energy efficient living environment comparable to the off-base civilian community in the United State. Repairs will include energy efficient weatherization, modernization to kitchen, living room, bedrooms and bath(s) addressing interior authorizations to include dehumidification and air condition by replacing existing heaters with a complete HVAC (heating, cooling) system. Air condition is required to comply with UFC 03-410-01FA. The heat pump system will include air handling unit capable of performing heating, cooling, and dehumidifying functions equipped with wall or ceiling mount units, ducting, electrical and controls. Each heat pump should be sized to provide adequate heat during winter months. Smoke detectors will be upgraded per regulatory codes. Cable, internet and telephone lines will be repaired as requited. All repairs will be made in accordance with 2016 Housing Community Profile (HCP) and Air Force Family Housing Design Guide. Roof insulation, energy efficient windows and doors are required to provide more energy efficient units and decrease further utility costs in the winter months. Project provides general interior and exterior Extended Change of Occupancy Maintenance (ECOM) to twenty (20) - three bedroom Junior Non-Commissioned Office (JNCO) homes and four (4) - 2 bedroom JNCO homes. Includes utility upgrades to meet current standards. Repair by replacement, upgrades to kitchen, bathrooms, and floor coverings. Install patio coverings. Repair, by replacement, air source heat windows, doors and frames to each unit for maximum energy efficiency. Project will repair, by replacement, all interior and exterior painting, lighting, smoke detectors, floor coverings, appliances roof/insulation repair/replacement, building exterior façade, force protection measures, handicap accessibility, site improvement, additional storage, parking for residents/guests and landscaping. Project provides energy management control system (EMCS) for integration with the Misawa AB EMCS system. Project will abate asbestos, lead-based paint, arsenic gypsum board and other hazardous materials encountered and provide all necessary related work for a complete and usable home/unit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROJECT 2: Project Title: FY19 QKKA184008 REPAIR FAMILY HOUSING, TOWER B117 (68 UNITS) Project Location: Misawa Air Base, Japan Project NAICS: 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction Project Magnitude: Between ¥2,500,000,000 and ¥10,000,000,000 (Japanese Yen) (Utilizing a rate of: 111.5938 Yen to 1 U.S. Dollar) Project Description: Based on a base-wide initiative to reduce overall energy usage and energy costs, especially steam production for heating use, the current steam-sourced domestic hot water system must be replaced with an energy efficient electric sourced heat pump system.
