H ONOLULU - Iolani School may be one of the ?nest K-

12 schools in the United States, and it's located on some

prime real estate too: Oahu, Hawaii. From its academic program to its mechanical and IAQ systems, the inde- pendent school continues to challenge itself to stay on the forefront of technology and education.

In 2003, the school completed construction of the ?rst phase of a campus master plan - the largest capital project in the

school's history. ?e next phase is now being developed. Teachers and administrators at Iolani School have developed a curriculum that teaches not only the basics (reading, writing, and mathematics), but is also said to teach the 1,800-plus stu- dents how to develop thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving skills; "to explore conceptual frameworks, to see the connected- ness of bodies of knowledge, to hone verbal skills, and to dis- cover individual creativity." Class sizes are small, with an estimated student-teacher ratio of 11:1, depending on the class; Kindergarten classes tend to be among the smallest. ?e school also claims to have one of the highest teacher re- tention rates among independent schools in the country. Part of the overall success must be due to the administration's willing- ness to look into technical building solutions to create a better learning environment.

Capital ideas

With the 2003 completion of the Weinberg Classroom/Kozu- ki Stadium/Multipurpose Complex, Iolani School ?nished the ?rst phase in a 20-year master plan to enhance facilities on this

20-acre campus, said Hawaiian Electric Co. (HECO).

"Most notable improvements include 32 classrooms, four physics suites, a biology laboratory, a computer laboratory, a meeting room that comfortably seats 400 people, parking for 350 cars, o?ce space, an athletic stadium, open space, an environmentally friendly cam- pus-wide chilled-water loop for air conditioning, and handicap ac- cess," the school said. One of the oldest schools in Hawaii - it was founded in 1863 - the school's aesthetic design re?ects the school's roots as an An- glican school founded by English clergy during Hawaii's monar- chy period. ?e project's goal was to implement sustainable design strategies and technology without changing the look of the school. Sustainability and e?ciency were key for the complex's main buildings: the 74,000-square-foot Weinberg Classroom build- ing and the 174,000-square-foot Kozuki Stadium/Multipurpose

Complex.

"More than 75 percent of the occupied space in this complex in- corporates daylighting," said HECO. ?e system combines alumi- num light shelves, light pipes, low-e glass, VAV, and DDC systems to enhance energy performance.

iaQ and sustainability are Features of the school Iolani School started researching the potential of UV light in 1996, by installing UVC lights in a single air-handling unit. The test unit achieved a

99.8 percent reduction in mold levels after being treated with UVC light.

The school's Weinberg Classroom/Kozuki Stadium/Multipurpose Complex project was completed in 2003, finishing the first phase in a 20-year mas- ter plan to enhance facilities on this 20-acre campus. ?e Kozuki Stadium/Multipurpose structure contains parking for 350 cars, bleacher seating for approximately 1,200, and a central ice storage plant designed to expand in phases, to eventually ac- commodate the entire campus. sustainability and iaQ

To help reduce the cooling load, large

asphalt areas were replaced by concrete or landscaping to reduce heat islands, and creeping ?g was planted around build- ing exteriors. Combined, these e?ciency measures now save the school 28 percent annually on electricity costs, said HECO, "which translates into nearly $32,000 per year."

Iolani School also incorporated many

other sustainable strategies. Fi?y-eight percent of the construction materials (including 90 percent of the structural steel) used to build the Weinberg Class- room/Kozuki Stadium/Multipurpose

Complex were made of post-consumer or

post-industrial content. "Indoor environmental quality has also been improved at the complex, since low-

VOC products were installed through-

out the buildings," the utility explained. "Low-VOC sealants, carpets, sheet vinyl, vinyl tiles, and paints were used in areas and corridors frequented by students, faculty, and sta?."

Ultraviolet-C (UVC) lights were ?rst

researched by the school in 1996, when they were installed on a trial basis in an air-handling system for enhanced IAQ and mold control - no small order in

Hawaii, where mold will grow on almost

anything. Initial before-and-a?er testing, performed in conjunction with HECO, showed that the test unit achieved a 99.8 percent reduction in mold levels a?er be- ing treated with UVC light.

Mold, students, and FaCulty

Since then, 20 UVC lamps (from Ster-

il-Aire) were installed in six air-handling units (AHUs) serving a 35,000-square- foot o?ce and classroom building. ?e AHUs total 45,000 cfm. ?e lamps last 1.5 years, with a replacement cost of approximately $1,300 per year, according to HECO. "?e installation eliminated mold growth and odor, there were fewer com- plaints of respiratory problems, and the facility manager is very satis?ed." Main- tenance savings are estimated at $8,000 per year for a/c coil cleaning and mold remediation. "A?er installing UVC, we were able to eliminate this expense," said Lloyd

Stern, maintenance superintendent for

the school. Ten years later, Iolani is us- ing the devices throughout the campus to keep new and existing AHUs and fan coils clean. "We have virtually eliminated mold and organic buildup in the a/c systems," says Stern. "?ere is no sign of mold growth and none of the associated odors.

By restoring system e?ciency in this way,

the lights also help to reduce HVAC en- ergy costs. And we still haven't had to clean the coils." "While the maintenance and energy savings are bene?cial, IAQ is the main is- sue for us," Stern said. "Poor IAQ can re- sult in [student and teacher] absenteeism, litigation, and worse - and many schools have paid the price. You ultimately save money by delivering clean air."

Iolani School operates the lights on a

24/7 basis for optimum protection of stu-

dents, faculty, and sta?. Maintenance en- tails the periodic changeout of the tubes.

The Iolani School is one of the oldest schools in Hawaii, having been founded in 1863. The design reflects its roots as an Anglican school founded by English clergy, during Hawaii's monarchy period.
