is a \u2018traditional\u2019 student,\u201d reads the website for San Jacinto Community College. \u201cWhatever your dreams, whatever your goals, whatever your unique situation, San Jacinto College is here with all the tools you need to put you on the pathway that leads to your vision of success.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>Perhaps that statement reflects part of the reason San Jacinto is using Aquatherm polypropylene pipe as it upgrades the heating and cooling systems at its South campus. Aquatherm is not a \u201ctraditional\u201d pipe, and it is flexible and versatile to handle unique situations and help its users successfully meet their goals. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diversity, Opportunity, and Reward<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>Founded in 1961, San Jacinto Community College has five instructional delivery locations in Harris County (Houston), TX: three full-service campuses (North, Central, and South) and two growing satellite sites. As of the 2010 census, the population of Harris County was 4,092,459, making it the most populous county in Texas and the third most populous county in the United States. The college serves about 32,000 students at its five sites.  <\/p>\n\n<p>According to C.D. \u201cChuck\u201d Smith, P.E., Associate Vice Chancellor, Fiscal Initiatives and Capital Projects, the 13,000 students at the South campus are typical of the diverse nature of the surrounding communities, with more than half identifying as Hispanic, about a quarter white, and about 10 percent each Black or Asian.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAll of our students are taking advantage of the low-cost, high-quality educational opportunities we offer to improve their future earning opportunities,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAll of our students are taking advantage of the low-cost, high-quality educational opportunities we offer to improve their future earning opportunities,\u201d Smith said. \u201cMost of them work full-time and attend school part-time. And although about 70 percent of them may plan on transferring to a four-year institution, 30 percent of our students are here specifically to earn trade or craft skills credentials.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>Helping the college\u2019s students achieve their goals, Smith added, is a uniquely rewarding experience.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cI was a Marine before I did this, and it\u2019s nice when what you do for a living has a sense of mission to it, rather than just going to a job every day,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to C.D. \u201cChuck\u201d Smith, P.E., Associate Vice Chancellor, Fiscal Initiatives and Capital Projects, the 13,000 students at the South campus are typical of the diverse nature of the surrounding communities, with more than half identifying as Hispanic, about a quarter white, and about 10 percent each Black or Asian.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAll of our students are taking advantage of the low-cost, high-quality educational opportunities we offer to improve their future earning opportunities,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time for An Upgrade<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>The South campus of San Jacinto College consists of 15 major buildings ranging in size from roughly 20,000 to 120,000 sq ft. As the college planned to upgrade the campus\u2019 aging central utility system, it selected Aquatherm pipe for a portion of the new chilled water loop. <\/p>\n\n<p>Smith said the central utility upgrade will not only ensure that the campus is served efficiently well into the future, it also will consolidate and simplify the physical plants on the site.<\/p>\n\n<p>He explained that the campus originally had a single plant adjacent to the campus\u2019 quadrangle. Over time, this was expanded by the addition of air-cooled chillers, and surrounded by new buildings. The college then added a packaged plant at one corner of its property to support additional growth. The current plan is to add another packaged Canariss plant containing two 600-ton centrifugal chillers and an expansion slot for a third at the opposite corner of the campus. Once operational, the original plants will be removed and the space reclaimed for student use.    <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWhen all is said and done, we\u2019ll have two complimentary plants\u2014and we\u2019ll be able to supply anywhere on campus using a combination of those two plants,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Harsh Soil Takes a Toll<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>The current system includes a large amount of direct-buried steel pipe, some of which is more than 40 years old. Not surprisingly, buried steel pipe of that age has been experiencing some ongoing problems\u2014especially in the harsh soil of Eastern Texas. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe have highly expansive soils at the South campus, and our buried pipe really takes a beating,\u201d Smith said. \u201cWhen it rains, the clay in the soil swells, and when it doesn\u2019t rain, the clay shrinks and cracks and puts a lot of stress on the pipe. The combination of corrosion and stress on the pipe from soil movement leads to breakage, which leads to emergency repairs, and those emergency repairs sometimes lead to more soil<br\/>movement.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n<p>This clearly was a cycle that the college wanted to break.<\/p>\n\n<p>Smith and the administration at San Jacinto were familiar with Aquatherm pipe from a project recently completed at the college\u2019s North campus, and they knew its toughness, durability, and flexibility would make it a good choice for the direct-buried application at the South campus. In addition, its light weight allowed the college to bring some of the pipe out of the ground and route it along the roofs of the campus\u2019 larger buildings. That decision, Smith noted, made the installation more robust, less subject to the whims of nature, and easier to maintain.  <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cPredictability is what drives us,\u201d Smith said. \u201cWe have to be conscious not only of the first cost but also predictable life cycle costs.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Right Choice for the Job<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>The San Jacinto College South chilled water upgrades project consists of the installation of 3,500 ft of SDR-11 Aquatherm Blue Pipe\u00ae. The 6-in, 10-in, 12-in, and 16-in. Aquatherm pipe is routed across the college\u2019s courtyard, up and over the roofs of three buildings, and across campus, connecting four valve vaults. The first phase of the project includes the installation of 16\u2010in. piping that will be utilized in the future to tie into the new chilled-water system loop.    <\/p>\n\n<p>ACR Engineering Inc. designed the system. The firm also had done the design work for the project at the North campus. In that project, in which the piping was installed in an underground tunnel, Aquatherm\u2019s clean heat fusion joining method, which produces no fumes or VOCs, made it a much safer choice than welding. In addition, the light weight of Aquatherm was again an important factor, this time from a labor perspective, as two installers\u2014 instead of the six that would have been required for carbon-steel pipe\u2014could easily carry and maneuver a 20-ft section of pipe in a confined space.   <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cSome people may have doubts about plastic piping, especially when they\u2019re using it for the first time, but in my opinion this product is fantastic,\u201d said Tanner Bradley, P.E., Senior Engineer, ACR Engineering. \u201cAs an engineer, it\u2019s important that the flow you design is going to remain the same over time. Because Aquatherm pipe doesn\u2019t scale or corrode, it maintains the same flow over its entire lifespan.  <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIn addition, although we have a good water treatment provider at the college, there are some facilities that don\u2019t maintain their water as well,\u201d Bradley added. \u201cKnowing that the pipe won\u2019t corrode if the pH gets a little bit off adds a level of safety and definitely is a benefit.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Benefits Add Up<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>AMCAA (MCA of Texas) member company The Brandt Companies, Houston, has been installing Aquatherm for several years, and Project Manager Stephen Wise said in his two years with the firm he has seen the product\u2019s popularity increase in numerous markets in Texas, including Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas.<\/p>\n\n<p>Wise said the product\u2019s lifespan of 50+ years is usually the most important consideration for the end-user. From a contractor\u2019s perspective, the labor savings and material handling aspects of Aquatherm pipe represent tremendous benefits compared to carbon steel. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe heat fusion process is much faster than welding steel, and it\u2019s a much lighter and more nimble product,\u201d Wise said. \u201cOff-site fabrication is another benefit. When you have long, straight runs of pipe, you can have two 19-foot sections of pipe fused into one 38-foot section. That\u2019s one less weld you have to complete in the field. On a direct-buried system you can have the pipe ready to go into the ground faster than you can dig the hole.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>Aquatherm handles changes in pressure very well, as far as underground expansion and contraction, Wise added, and insulation can be omitted in underground chilled water installations if the pipe is bedded with 12 in. of bank sand. <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, according to Wise, Aquatherm is very \u201cforgiving\u201d and can be easily maneuvered and manipulated within a given space due to its light weight. It also can be easily custom configured to meeting challenges in the field. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cDue to the proximity of several existing underground utilities on the San Jacinto campus, there was often only one pathway the piping could be routed, so in some cases we needed to offset it into position of the only free space available,\u201d Wise explained. \u201cThere were also several situations that required custom fabricated spool pieces in order to connect the piping in confined spaces.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Good Partner<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>Wise stated that all of Brandt\u2019s installers are trained in the Aquatherm heat-fusion process. For this project, the company used fusion equipment provided by ISCO Industries Inc., Houston, including the McElroy Acrobat\u2122 160, 250, and 315 fusion machines, and the McElroy QuikFit\u2122 cartridge for the 16-in. pipe.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Brandt took advantage of ISCO\u2019s fabrication services for about 30 percent of the piping installed.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIn the field, we drafted isometric drawings for ISCO to implement into AutoCAD,\u201d Wise said. \u201cFollowing the approval process, piping was released into fabrication. The quick turnaround process provided solutions in time-critical situations. In addition, the 30-foot piping chases up to the roof were able to be quickly hoisted into place as they arrived as one piece from the ISCO prefabrication facility.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>Will Vodak, Aquatherm Sales Manager, ISCO Industries, noted that ISCO has a nationwide network of fabrication plants, including one just 10 minutes from the San Jacinto jobsite.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cBrandt took the opportunity to prefab as much as possible,\u201d Vodak said. \u201cThe light weight of Aquatherm pipe, and the speed at which it can be installed, provided some massive time savings on this project.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>ISCO also was able to send a technician out to the jobsite to help field-fabricate custom spools to fit the tight offsets that Wise described.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cISCO had fabrication close by, we had fusion equipment close by, we had repair options and backup options for that equipment close by, and we had a technician who was able to produce custom spool offsets on site,\u201d Vodak said. \u201cBrandt took advantage of all these services to install the Aquatherm pipe faster than they thought was going to be possible.\u201d He added that such services are available from ISCO nationwide.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modulating Cooling Based on Need<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>Wise pointed out that an interesting aspect of this project from the engineering and installation standpoint was the replacement of four secondary chilled water pumps followed by the addition of 21 new tertiary pumps on individual air handlers.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe newly installed tertiary pumps work on a modulating system similar to a control valve,\u201d he said. \u201cTheir speed gets ramped up or down in relation to the demand of the zone the individual air handler is serving. Together the secondary and tertiary pumps modulate based on cooling needs throughout the campus.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ready for the Future<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p>Some parts of the system at the South campus are still valved off, waiting for the new utility plants to be completed and brought online. However, Smith said parts of the Aquatherm system at the South campus have been operating for seven months, and the installation at the North campus has been operating for 15<br\/>months, both with \u201czero problems.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>As a college administrator, it\u2019s not surprising that Smith would advise building owners or engineers who are considering Aquatherm to \u201cdo their homework.\u201d He also extended a friendly Texas-style invitation to the staff at other educational facilities. <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re considering Aquatherm but you\u2019re unfamiliar with it, come take a look at what we\u2019ve installed and think about how this product could reduce the life cycle cost of ownership in your application,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aquatherm<\/h2>\n\n<p>The German-manufactured pipe has been one of the world\u2019s most durable and greenest piping systems for four decades and proven successful in 70-plus countries. Aquatherm piping systems offer many performance and environmental benefits, such as: <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list list-dashed\">\n<li>Eliminating toxic materials, glues and resins, and open flames from the piping installation equation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An R-value of 1 or more per inch or greater depending on pipe size and SDR<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The fusion welding process, which creates seamless connections that last a lifetime without leaking or failing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An optional faser-composite layer in the pipe reduces linear expansion of the pipe by up to 75 percent compared to plastic piping<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Jacinto College&#8217;s South campus is using Aquatherm pipe to upgrade its heating and cooling systems as part of its initiative to offer diverse and cost-effective educational opportunities to its students.
