Outages & notifications
Facilities Services strives to provide as much notice as possible for any outages or work notifications.
| Date | Affected Buildings | Notification |

Effective 2023 |
All buildings with HVAC systems |
The cooling setpoint for the university’s HVAC systems has transitioned from 75 F to 76 F. This adjustment accomplishes several needs. It will allow our HVAC system to recover from temperature fluctuations between rooms. It preserves the cooling capacity for our Thermal Energy Storage (TES) tanks, which store 2 million gallons of water cooled overnight, during the summer months' extreme temperatures. And it is part of SDSU’s efforts to shift further toward sustainability goals by reducing the impact on the environment. Thermal comfort may be affected during this transition, especially on warmer days. |
| October 27-February 6 | Parking Structure #1 |
Facilities Services will be replacing the lighting. The entire parking structure, stairwells and elevator lobbies will have lighting replaced. The temporary closure of these areas will follow a predetermined schedule. This schedule will be posted on each respective floor.

| January 5 | Administration, Bell Pavilion, & Bookstore |
Facilities Services will be performing an annual emergency generator transfer test at the Bell Pavillion, Administration, and Bookstore buildings to verify the operation of the Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and emergency generator. This transfer test is required to confirm the proper operation of the standby system.
During this transfer test, there will be a 10-second interruption of the building’s electrical circuits that are on the emergency generator while the emergency generator start-up sequence is completed. The generator will operate under the building load for 15 minutes and then transfer back to utility power, which will be a very short additional interruption for those circuits.
The remainder of the test will include operating the standby generator under a load bank test for a duration of 1-hour. The load bank test will not impact the building operation.
Any equipment on the emergency generator system. Facilities Services strongly recommends that any equipment that may be negatively affected by this 10-second electrical interruption be shut down prior to this test.
Noise levels will be elevated due to the operation of the emergency generator during the testing.
