Reheats and controls are outdated and are not compatible with the Delta Connects BMS system which creates issues with proper heating of the entire area. Plumbing system, mainly the shower mixing valves and outdated fixtures are operational but require recurring maintenance. There is also an issue with isolating the domestic hot and cold water for this ward.
