Warm Weather – Projects & Cooling System Outages

Due to the unseasonably warm weather forecasted for March, Auraria Facilities Services will be starting up cooling systems earlier than normal in many buildings on campus to keep temperatures comfortable. In the buildings listed below, there are on-going construction projects or other factors that make restarting cooling systems early in the season impossible.

PLEASE BE ADVISED if you are in one of the following buildings, they are likely to be warm and uncomfortable from the late morning through the end of the day until the date specified below. The Auraria Campus Facilities team is aware of this situation, so there is no need to take time to put in a work order.

Buildings with no active cooling:

• Admin – Scheduled start-up 2^nd week of April 2026.
• Bear Creek – Temporary Cooling to be setup week of March 9, 2026.
• Facilities Services – Parts on order no schedule at this time.
