Subject:
Campus-Wide Seasonal Switchover from Cooling to Heating

Based on the current long-term weather forecast, Facilities Management has determined that the time has come to switch our campus HVAC systems from cooling to heating. The switchover process will begin next Monday, November 1, and will continue during the subsequent five days. Bringing building heating systems online will not take place simultaneously due to the unique piping infrastructure of our campus and buildings. Therefore, a staged conversion will take place and be completed by Friday, November 5. At that point, all buildings will be in heating mode. This will include all buildings on the main and off-campus locations. ÌýPlease share this information. ÌýÌý
