HVAC follow-up

[Christopher D. Purdy]

List,

We had a big meeting with the engineers and facilities type people 
today and it is starting to look like they may fund our proposal to 
repair the HVAC in our building!  I'll believe it when I see it but 
for now they want me to give them some figures outlining things like 
depreciation, life expectancy, and replacement schedule for our piano 
inventory.

Has anyone done such a report?  I would really appreciate any hints 
you could give me.  Could I see a copy of your report?  Also, do any 
of you keep a replacement schedule?  Does the school follow it?  We 
tend to save up to buy new pianos with the coins I find on the key 
bed.  Do any of you have an annual replacement budget?

I will be getting all the information I can from the CAUT web page 
but I am very interested in hearing about any experience you have 
with this.  Thank you very much for your help.

Chris
