District Heating - Chaplaincy Centre Pipework Replacement Project

The University is inviting tenders on the terms set out in this ITT. Lancaster University operates a District Heating system that delivers pressurised hot water to buildings via a network of pipework. Historically these pipes ran in ducts and sub-ducts and were uninsulated steel. A scheme to update existing plant rooms has been progressing across campus and the re-commissioning of the district heating system exposed two leaks to the district heating pipework between University House and The Chaplaincy Centre.

This project involves the design and build of a new section of district heating between University House and the Chaplaincy Centre. This includes the disconnection and isolation of the existing district heating pipework, between the University House and Chaplaincy Centre plant rooms and will include isolation of the existing district heating in the HR plant room. The supply and installation of new insulated district heating pipework and the connection of this pipework within the University House, HR and Chaplaincy plant rooms.
