Allana Buick & Bers (ABB) was retained by the Sugar Beach Apartment Owners Association of Maui, Hawaii to perform a due diligence inspection and evaluation of a multi-story, multi-building resort property. The work included mechanical systems including of existing rooftop mechanical equipment, chilled water piping and pipe insulation conditions and indoor fan coil units.
ABB also provided a cursory review of maintenance records as well as construction permits and maintenance repairs made in the previous ten years. The various components were surveyed in an attempt to determine existing conditions and to develop a brief recommended repair or replacement program with associated cost estimates. The study led to an upgrade of mechanical systems, with a significant reduction in operating costs.
