Check List g.

No evidence of drainage problems exist. Water drains away from the building including roof downspouts.

An outside water spigot was found partially on and was running continuously just outside the

Media Center in the courtyard. This water was settling up against the foundation. A work order was submitted and the District plumber made the repair.

h.

Sprinklers do not spray directly toward the building or into outdoor air intakes. i.

3.

Roof (Inspections conducted weather permitting) a.

Roofing consultant has not found any issues requiring immediate repair.

Most recent roofing inspection date/company: 5-year roofing plan completed 5/25/2010 with C. E.

Crowley & Associates. This past summer a complete inspection of all roofs on District facilities was conducted and repairs were made based upon that inspection. For issues that come up throughout the year we have used All American Exteriors.

All exhaust fans are operating properly and free of debris.

The exhaust fan over the 5 th

grade wing was found off. This exhausts the whole wing. It was turned on and the following day interior room levels for CO2 were satisfactory.

Outdoor Air CO Reading: 0; 0; 2.1; 0

Highest CO Location: 0 Reading: All Rooms

Lowest CO Location: Reading:

If the CO level is greater than 9.0 PPM in any space as measured with a handheld device or “leave-in” monitor, the space must be cleared of all occupants and steps taken to correct the problem. The issue will be immediately addressed by maintenance and the Fire Department. (Readings are noted on the attached test data sheet) f.

CO2 levels in any occupied space are below threshold limits. i.

Perform CO2 check with Gray Wolf or other portable device. Measure four times yearly or more often if needed. Measure only in fully occupied rooms. Reading should be less than 700 PPM plus outside air CO2 PPM.

700 PPM + 381; 381; 480; 399 PPM = 1081; 1081; 1050; 1099 PPM

Assume outside CO2 is 350 if temperature is below 41 degrees and air is not stagnant with no- wind.

Record all occupied space CO2 levels on forms provided. Provide the outdoor CO2 level as well as the high and low CO2 extremes below:

True False N/A ii.

If reading is above threshold, check univent and air handling dampers to ensure a value is set to provide at least 15 cfm of fresh air intake per student based on average space occupancies. If reading is consistently elevated, then use data logging to monitor CO2 concentrations over time and look for other sources of problems.

Work orders were written to address inadequate outside air.

For areas greater than 9 square feet, replace carpet with tile in reasonable timeframe. If carpet is over ACM tile, replace during next unoccupied break time (winter break, spring break, summer).

If false, record findings and locations here: i.

Mold or mildew growth is not evident.
