Scope: During the month of January, 2021, the U of O will have an outside contractor cleaning HVAC systems in your buildings.

Extra Notes: The work will be conducted using strict containment and air controls and should not impact end-users in any way; however, users should be advised that their HVAC systems may be shut down for periods during the month of January.

Work Performed By: This work will be managed with Safety & Risk Services and supported by CPFM.
