Sherriff Station ​

With MVN’s expertise in system integration, this sheriff station project was equipped with solutions tailored to support both administrative functions and public service operations. The design emphasized efficiency, compliance, and adaptability to future needs, ensuring reliable performance and a safe, comfortable environment for staff and visitors.

Mechanical Design

The facility was served through a VRF system, providing efficient heating and cooling with zoned control to maintain comfort across offices, holding areas, and public spaces. Mechanical routing was coordinated with architectural layouts to ensure seamless integration and long-term maintainability.

Electrical Design

Electrical infrastructure was upgraded with new lighting and receptacles to enhance safety, functionality, and energy efficiency. Photometric analysis guided illumination for offices, corridors, and secure areas, while receptacle distribution supported technology, equipment, and daily operations with a durable and adaptable backbone.

Plumbing Design

Plumbing systems were modernized with new restroom installations, designed to meet code requirements and improve accessibility and durability. Routing was coordinated to ensure efficient water distribution, waste removal, and long-term reliability for staff and public use.

The mechanical systems were tailored to the building’s mixed‑use operations. Key design elements include:

  • First‑floor kitchen exhaust terminated with a wall‑mounted blast fan, supported by a makeup air unit located outside the building.
  • First‑floor retail space served by a fan coil unit paired with a gas‑fired furnace.
  • Second‑floor retail tenant similarly equipped with a dedicated fan coil and furnace system.
  • Each dwelling unit on upper levels provided with its own fan coil unit for independent comfort control.
  • Condensing units strategically located at grade level outside the building for efficient operation and service accessibility.

Electrical systems were designed to meet the varied needs of restaurant, retail, and residential spaces. Key highlights:

  • Existing services leveraged with new panels provided as required to support tenant improvements.
  • Kitchen areas on the first level equipped with GFI outlets for safety compliance.
  • Retail and dwelling units fitted with outlets in full compliance with code.
  • Lighting design incorporated aesthetic round fixtures, coordinated with the architect’s reflected ceiling plan (RCP).
  • Lighting ensures both functionality and visual appeal across all restaurant, retail, and residential spaces.

The plumbing design presented unique challenges due to the absence of an external grease interceptor:

  • below‑floor grease interceptor engineered to serve the basement restaurant space — meeting all regulatory and operational requirements.
  • Each floor equipped with a gas‑fired water heater to provide reliable hot water service across residential and retail tenants.
  • System designed for efficiency, compliance, and long‑term durability throughout the building’s mixed occupancies.
