TDE designed a complete new front-end electrical service along with fire alarm, fire sprinkler and mechanical ventilation system upgrades for the historical Bohemian Club of San Francisco’s main club building located at 624 Taylor Street, San Francisco.

Added complexity was realized on this project due to the historical nature of the building. The building received an upgrade from 800 amps to 2,000 amps to cater for current and future anticipated electrical loads. This upgrade was carried out in conjunction with PG&E, the local utility provider, who ran a new service in from the Taylor Street electrical vault to a new electrical room housing the new switchgear.

The building also received a new, state-of-the-art, $2.5 million AV system in the Jinks Theater and Main Dining room areas. TDE provided all the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing support service upgrades that were required to ensure a successful project. TDE is currently working on upgrading the heating and Ventilation systems along with the phased upgrade of all life safety systems.
