Quick Summary

The Department of the Navy, NAVFACSYSCOM MID-ATLANTIC, is soliciting proposals for FY26 Wallace Creek BEQ Chiller Repairs at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, NC. This project involves the replacement of six chillers and associated pumps, along with hydronic system cleaning. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside opportunity, restricted to specific Mechanical MACC Contractors. Proposals are due April 2, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST.

Scope of Work

The project, identified as Project No. 25-0438, requires the replacement of six specified chillers (WC105, WC110, WC115, WC120, WC130, WC135) and their associated pumps and drives at the Wallace Creek BEQ. The scope also includes the replacement of triple duty valves, suction diffusers, and butterfly valves at the chilled water pumps. New chillers will not require a heat recovery option; exterior heat recovery piping should be capped and reinsulated. The facility will remain operational during construction, requiring minimal interference.

Detailed hydronic pipe cleaning and flushing procedures are outlined, focusing on removing deleterious substances using specific detergents and water treatment chemicals (e.g., sodium sulfite, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate) at a maintained temperature of 120°F for a minimum of 48 hours.

Key Chiller & System Requirements

New chillers must include a 10-year parts, labor, and refrigerant warranty, factory-installed water strainers, GFCI convenience outlets, and heat trace for evaporator/piping. They require single-point power connections, VFDs for condenser fan motors, e-coat/topcoat finish for corrosion protection, and Microchannel construction (or approved alternate) for condenser coils. Control panels must be NEMA 3R rated and accessible, with BACnet/MSTP controls. The chiller manufacturer must have a service organization within 35 miles of Camp Lejeune. Piping 4" and below will be copper, while 5" and greater will be schedule 40 welded steel, with external piping requiring heat trace and insulation. Hydrostatic testing is required for piping, and manufacturer-authorized personnel must perform chiller start-ups.
