Update: Church Heating and Repairs
We are pleased to report that our new central boiler continues to perform well and provide reliable heat throughout much of our facility. Earlier this year, the new boiler was working together with the air-handling units, which are over thirty years old. Recently, the air-handling unit that circulates warm air from the boiler into the church encountered an issue. It appears that a malfunctioning damper is preventing warm air from reaching the church. This has proven to be a complex challenge, as the damper operates in coordination with all the mechanical system controls and aged air-handling program. Our boiler mechanical contractors have inspected the system, and we are working closely with our Facilities Commission to determine the most effective and lasting solution. We are hopeful that the issue will be resolved soon, restoring proper warmth to the church.
The lower level below the church remains well-heated, ensuring that our Faith Formation programs and parish ministries continue without disruption. In addition, we are proceeding with repairs to the second boiler, which heats the side wings of the church. New hot water pumps have been ordered to ensure reliable operation, and we have scheduled gasket and pipe leak repairs on the lower level.
We sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding as we complete this essential work. Your support and prayers are appreciated as we continue caring for our aging facilities, ensuring they remain safe, efficient, and welcoming for all who gather in worship and fellowship.
