This contract is for replacing two broken ventilation systems in chemical storage areas at a swimming pool (one for the main pool, one for the learner pool). The work involves removing old fans and ducts, installing new equipment, and making sure everything works properly before handover.
Requirements
- Ability to remove existing chemical store extract ventilation systems safely
- Installation of high-pressure centrifugal fans to specification
- PVC ducting installation (250mm diameter)
- Electrical installation and mains power supply connections
- Fan speed controller installation and setup
- Testing and commissioning of completed systems
- Ability to work in a swimming pool environment (may require pool-specific safety awareness)
- Replacement of corroded mesh screens with non-corrosive alternatives
- Site cleaning and waste removal upon completion
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Remove two existing chemical store extract ventilation systems including all fans, ducting, and louvres
- Install new high-pressure centrifugal fans in both the main and learner pool chemical stores
- Install 250mm PVC ducting to connect new fans
- Install fan speed controllers for both systems
- Connect mains power supplies and electrical wiring to new fans and controllers
- Replace corroded mesh screens on door louvres with non-corrosive material (stainless steel or equivalent)
- Test both ventilation systems to confirm they extract air correctly
- Balance and commission systems to ensure proper airflow and operation
- Clean work areas, remove all debris, and leave site neat and tidy
How to Read This Tender
- 1Check the tender documents for the exact specifications of the 'high-pressure centrifugal fans' — you'll need to know the CFM (cubic feet per minute) or m³/h airflow rating, and noise limits, as these affect the equipment cost and installation method.
- 2Look for site access restrictions — working near a functioning swimming pool may have time windows (e.g. during closures only) or require permits; clarify this early.
- 3Electrical work: confirm whether the contractor must be Part P certified (Building Regulations for electrical installation) or if the client's electrician will handle the mains connections — this affects your labour costs and insurance.
- 4The 'testing, balancing, and commissioning' phase is critical — you'll need calibrated measuring equipment or may need to subcontract a ventilation specialist; don't underestimate this in your quote.
- 5Hazardous substance handling: check if the client requires proof of safe handling procedures for chemicals still present during removal — COSHH risk assessments may be mandatory.
Tips for Small Businesses
- Subcontracting opportunity: if you're not a registered electrician or ventilation engineer, plan to subcontract electrical and commissioning work rather than trying to do it yourself — factor 15–20% subcontractor fees into your bid and confirm they're available before submitting.
- Get exact dimensions and photos from the client before bidding — ducting routes, ceiling heights, and access points vary; a site visit will save costly errors and change orders.
- Non-corrosive material specification: stainless steel mesh is standard for pool environments; confirm the material grade (typically 316 stainless steel) with the client before ordering to avoid rejection and delays.
