The University awarded a contract for emergency repair of hospital generators.
This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which immediate repairs were needed to prevent further loss or damage to University property.
Lionheart maintains the hospital emergency generators. The hospital generator number 3 is leaking antifreeze. We are currently, putting 2 gallons of antifreeze weekly to keep the alarm from sounding off and also to ensure that generator number 3 will be able to run if necessary. The generators supply the hospital chillers 1 and 4, the condensate pump and other buildings, it is crucial that the leak is repaired. The leak must be repaired so that UIC will have an adequate supply of power for the duration of a long term outage, power loss from ComEd or the plant. The equipment is obsolete and the vendor has the expertise to provide the emergency service on the generators.
