This project will replace the roof top air handling unit at the Lawshe Museum in South St. Paul, MN. The current 20-ton Trane RTU was installed in 2001 and has reached the end of its useful life. The specified replacement unit is also a 20-ton Trane RTU. The like-for-like equipment selection will allow for a simplified replacement by utilizing the existing rails and ducts.
Prevailing wages are required on this project.
