About this Project

Following the successful conversion of the Quad district, Big Shift construction is moving focus to the Sprocket District, which covers the western campus core including the Segundo and Regan residence halls, the Student Health and Wellness Center, the ARC, the University Credit Union Center, and a handful of classroom and lab buildings. More hot water pipes will be installed, and more buildings will be converted as campus takes another step toward shifting away from fossil-fuel reliant, steam-based heating to hot water-based heating that can utilize renewable energy sources. After the completion of this Sprocket District phase, the Big Shift project will be well positioned to install the heat recovery equipment in the next phase of the project.
