  Subject: Air-conditioning Installation Costs for East Hall.

  Date: 4.4.94

  As you requested in your memo of March 15, we have studied the costs of installing air conditioning for the seven offices and two studio classrooms in East Hall ____ Example ____

  Office and Classroom installation

  Estimates were obtained from three contractors on the costs of covering the offices and classrooms ____ 8 ____ The work would take about three weeks.

  Because the central unit would be installed on the roof, some noise problems might occur during a four-or five-day period ____ 9 ____ Sheet metal work to build out lest in the classes could be dine on weekends, and the overtime labour costs of about $ 1,500 have been included in the estimates.

  Arrangements were not made to do the office space installation on weekends … 10 …

  Additional Installation

  Summary

  The total job for the building would be about $ 35,000 if done at one time. A two-stage installation would cost about $55,000. I can get official bids at your request.

  Example: A
