South Orange Rescue Squad

With respect to the thermostat controls installed several months ago, the please read the following info before complaining about the temperature in the building.

Temperatures in each zone are calculated in the following manner:

• Classroom Zone is an average of the temp at the thermostat in the training room and the sensor in the Board Room
• Bedrooms Zone is an average of the temp at the thermostat in the hallway leading to Bedroom 2, the sensor in Bedroom 1, and the sensor in Bedroom 3
• Dayroom Zone is the temperature at the thermostat in the TV room

Also, ALL PERSONNEL going in and out of station 2, PLEASE close the door leading into the bay at the bottom of the stairs. With the door open all the cold air from upstairs comes pouring down and into the bay. On hot days such as today there is no way that the A/C can over come the 20+ degree difference and keep the upstairs cool.First column is time, 2nd is what the heat runs to, 3rd is what the AC cools to.

Classroom

TV/Radio Room

Bedrooms

High temperature alarms are set for each zone at 85 degrees. Low temperature alarms are set for 60. Every thermostat will allow adjustment up/down of ± 2 degrees which will reset to the defined temperatures for each temp schedule at the above hours.

I am happy to discuss the limits and times for the above HVAC zones.

The front door has been completely replaced and is now back in service. Both the door and the door frame were replaced with new metal ones. This door also opens out which should make it easier to leave the building as you hurray to a call as well as putting less strain on the door locking mechanism.

As there isn’t a combo look on this door, you will be required to use your access card.

If you have problems getting in, please contact your supervisor or email me.
