COMMERCIAL
Eight (8) in-floor heating systems were installed to maintain comfort for Peterbilt’s truck technicians. A quick-lube service bay with a walk beneath oil pit was included in the project in which we included a dedicated exhaust and HVAC system. A 20,000 gallon waste oil tank was installed to collect used oil from the trucks, which is then used to fuel Three (3) waste oil boilers for heating water. There is also a full-size truck wash bay which includes in-floor heat, exhaust, and radiant heat. Finally, the new location houses a dynamometer for tuning and servicing Peterbilt trucks. The dyno has a specialty exhaust system that ACI installed.
Contract amount: $2,121,000
FEATURED PROJECT
ACI Mechanical was part of the new Ames High School building project. Over two years, 55.000 field hours, our engineers, technicians, and administrative staff completed on time and within budget. The project included the fabrication and installation of HVAC ductwork, chillers, and hydronic piping.
Contract Amount: $19,345,200
INDUSTRIAL
Altus Commerce Center IN Altoona IA is a campus comprised of three large warehouse shell buildings totaling 1,091,434 square feet. ACI Mechanical is responsible for the plumbing and HVAC installation in each building. Two of the three buildings are nearing completion. Building A is 265,700 square feet and is finished. Building C is the largest at 497,587 square feet. ACI is wrapping up work in Building C, performing the final installation of HVAC equipment. The last building, Building B, which is 328,147 square feet, is currently under construction.
Contract amount: $1,222,000
INFRASTRUCTURE
ACI Mechanical assembled a team of talented engineers, including civil, structural, and landscaping, as well as specialty subcontractors, to submit a $17.3 million GMP and construction methodology to HAS to install a replacement overhead piping system with a routing plan and support structures.
INDUSTRIAL
ACI Mechanical received the contract for the $9-million-dollar Mechanical portion of the project and completed detailed layout drawings for the installation. ACI installed 90,000 pounds of galvanized and stainless steel ductwork, 29 air handling units, and 10,000 feet of Hydronic Piping.
Construct a state-of-the-art facility that includes an entire temperature-controlled facility with redundant air handling systems with HEPA filter housing and a building waste system that can be contained in storage tanks before being transferred to the process waste building, ensuring that the environment is not exposed to potentially dangerous and contagious pathogens.
EDUCATION
An efficiency upgrade of the mechanical systems serving the main areas of Boone HS. ACI replaced two chillers and condensing units to serve the school’s East wing, 6 Air Handling Units and 12 VAVs to deliver clean, conditioned air to classrooms, and finally, a new Pool Dehumidification Unit to ensure the pool is a more enjoyable space. Along with new ductwork, piping, and controls, the Boone HS retrofit is a complete efficiency upgrade.

ACI Mechanical used the delay to BIM model the mechanical systems completely. Â A constant flow of field measurements was transferred back to our modeling team. Â The model produced a coordinated layout that allowed our manufacturing facility to prefabricate four floors of ductwork and HVAC piping mains and branch lines. Â Extensive prefabrication reduced our rough-in durations by two weeks per floor, allowing the finishing trades an equal headstart. Â
