Bagley Downs Apartments consist of eight buildings total, four on the east side of the canal and four on the west side of the canal. The buildings contain four apartments except for the buildings with laundry rooms which only have three apartments. Each building will get four solar collectors and two 120 gallon solar storage tanks. In every unit or laundry room is a water heater that will receive preheated water from the solar tanks.
Because there was no room in the buildings to put the solar tanks, we are building sheds on the exterior of each building to house the tanks. We have had unexpected delays due to underground piping, attic access and structurally supporting the roof, but now we're back on track.
As of today:
The sheds are built for the most part waiting a sheathing inspection after which siding can be installed, the asphalt shingles can be laid and the inside can be insulated and sheathed.
Attic access if complete.
Re-supporting the roofs so we can start setting collectors will happen over the next two days.
Piping from the sheds to the individual units have been run and insulated. A cold water supply line has been run to the sheds.
Stand-offs have been installed and are ready for the collectors to be mounted on the roof.
