Apparently, KSS and Greenscape are redesigning the street fountains at the corner of Vitruvian Way and Ponte Avenue.  I know this is a big issue with Tom since the existing fountain
doesn’t perform properly.  I’m sure KSS is going to bill their time to this  project as well for this re-design so can I bump up their remaining fee in the Change in Scope and Fee (currently
at $25,000 to say $30,000) or how should we handle this?

Joel/Bruce – 

 

Can one of you call me about the new Vitruvian Way fountain at your earliest convenience?  There are some concerns about power requirements.  We are not finished with our drawings, so
this is a progress set only.  We are meeting with Viewtech tomorrow to review the connection details and we are in the process of making the new fountain 2 rows of tubes instead of 3
as shown on the attached progress set.

 

Thank you - Robyn

Robin,

We’ve still got the concern about cleaning and think the moment of inertia would be slightly better if the tube was fastened below the structural mounting plate.

The LED light will not project through the water very well and needs to be as close as possible to the surface to get the most bang for the buck.

The donut hole light is 13.0 watts (no real equivalent chart – but guessing illumination about that of a 50 watt incandescent, currently have 250 watt)

Cut sheet shows 1 3/8” below water surface.

We did not discuss it at the meeting, but we’ll need to be careful with the nozzle selection on the existing fountain so that we don’t overcapacity the pump.

The RBN – 075 nozzle is the flow rate the pump was sized for  – 3hp, 150gpm, 40TDH

The RNA -100 nozzle is the “preferred” mockup, as I understand it, which should work fine at 8 ft.

I think we need to discuss what the purpose of the metal cap is on the proposed larger version, before I can comment on it.

I have attached the drawings with my notes and cut sheets on the nozzles, LED light

 

Thanks,
