Notes: Four-foot, four-lamp fixtures were de-lamped to two 25-watt lamps per fixture, with
one fixture taken off-line. Twelve 8ft, high output (HO) 2-lamp fixtures in the main retail area
were retrofitted with 4-foot, 4-lamp T-8 “retro-kits, with an energy use of 120 watts/fixture.”
The original 8ft fixtures operated at 260 systems watts per fixture and provided more light
than necessary. This strategy greatly reduced the wattage per fixture while providing plenty
of light for the retail area.

Heating Energy Efficiency Site Visit by Charlie Deer May 2 & 3, 2006
Held in Nunapitchuk – attended by 1 maintenance staff from Kasigluk
Boiler –room class-time Charlie Deer demonstrating
heating control systems
ABSN boiler specialist Charlie Deer traveled to Nunapitchuk and gave a 9-hour classroom
and hands-on boiler energy efficiency care and maintenance training for maintenance staff
from Nunapitchuk. Maintenance staff Wilson Twitchell from Kasigluk traveled to Nunapitchuk
and attended the training in Nunapitchuk. Charlie Deer made special mention of Wilson
Twitchell as someone who had strong potential for further training possibilities that Charlie felt
could lead to job or career placement in heating maintenance. “Wilson Twitchell from
Kasigluk is a top hand. (ie. Throw him a ball and he picks it up and runs with it). I am sending
him a flue gas analyzing kit. He can teach others to program thermostats, etc.” - Charlie
Deer. The city administration office building and boiler was used for the training. A never
used flue gas analyzer kit was found in the Laundromat and utilized for the training.

The city boiler was found to have gross glycol leaks which resulted in a failed expansion tank
as well as deterioration of all other ferous metal in the system. To mitigate system leakage
Charlie and trainees removed two of six di-electric unions and replaced them with sweat to
thread adapters, then installed a new expansion tank. Class-time also included programming
5 setback thermostats for various community buildings and installing one for the city office
building. Remaining programmed thermostats were given to the maintenance staff attending
to install in their buildings.
