Reminder About Seasonal Building Steam Management

As the warmer weather arrives, CPFM Facilities Services will again implement its process for systematically deactivating the heat within steam-controlled buildings.

These locations include the following:

• Agate Hall (gym/auditorium)
• Cascade Annex
• Collier House
• Columbia Hall (Room 154)
• Condon Hall
• CPFM Buildings
• Esslinger Hall
• Fine Arts Studios
• Friendly Hall
• Frohnmayer Music (radiators only)
• Gerlinger Hall
• Hendricks Hall
• Lawrence (primary studios)
• Lokey Education (East and West)
• McArthur Court (radiators only)
• Millrace Woodshop
• Onyx Bridge (072/090, 169/170)
• Susan Campbell
• University Hall
• Villard Hall
• Volcanology Hall

Because turning off the system is an involved and lengthy process, Facilities Services has established the

following methodology regulating when technicians will deactivate the steam for the warmer season:

As Spring temperatures become warmer, we systematically turn off the steam when outside nighttime

air temperature is above 50 degrees for five (5) consecutive nights AND daytime air temperature is

above 70 degrees for five (5) consecutive days.

Since Spring temperatures may vary widely from day to day, building occupants can expect inside

temperatures to fluctuate until outside conditions meet the above criteria, and technicians can deactivate

the steam.
