City of Hope Cancer Center – Irvine

Patient-focused, LEED-certified cancer care and research hub in Orange County.

Location Irvine, California

Date of Completion 2021

Representative J.D. Sales

Griswold Controls Products Used QuickSet Manual Balance Valves - Brass and Steel Flange versions, Flanged Strainers, Isolator S, and complementary components

Facility Description

The City of Hope Cancer Center will be a 190,000 square-foot, LEED-certified cancer center of the future in Irvine, California, and one of our personal favorite projects since it is a few miles from our factory. It is to be located on 11 acres of the master-planned FivePoint Gateway community. The center will become a regional cancer care hub in the heart of Irvine for years to come.

This patient-focused location offers highly specialized cancer care, clinical research with access to Phase 1-3 clinical trials, precision medicine, and early detection and prevention programs. It will be the home of leading cancer researchers and care professionals and be a center for innovation and compassionate care.

Every step of the way, they have been working with patients, caregivers, and the community. In fact, they began planning for the building by inviting hundreds of people to a design session. They asked participants to walk through mock-ups and provide feedback on everything from patient rooms to corridors to meeting areas. The result will be a facility that is tailor-made to Orange County.

Project Description

However, not only the design work is tailor-made. The HVAC is as well and it needs to be for such an important building. This project is using brass and steel flanged QuickSet valves along with some complimentary equipment in the form of Isolator S and Flanged strainers. For those that don’t know a lot about QuickSet, here is why our clients choose it.

When a Contractor’s Manual Balance Valve readings are anything less than ±1% accurate, the engineer’s system design is costing someone money. In many installations, contractors may sacrifice accuracy for space considerations since traditional Manual Balance Valves require straight pipe length upstream and downstream. Straight pipe length is not required with Griswold’s Disturbed Flow Measurement used exclusively in the QuickSet Manual Balance Valves. When the engineer specifies a QuickSet, they can count on the balancing contractor getting a ±1% test accuracy no matter what space the contractor has to install the valve. The engineer’s QuickSet specification guarantees the energy efficiency and lower operating cost desired by the owner (Read more here).

We are so excited to be working with the City of Hope and we can't wait to see the City of Hope Cancer Center help an immeasurable amount of lives!

Description:

Located in San Francisco, The Van Ness Campus at Cathedral Hill Hospital (CPMC) is a high-level regional hospital. It boasts advanced medical technology and private rooms with ample natural light and even a view. The replacement hospital project houses both an Acute Care Center and a Women’s and Children’s Center.

Beyond general medical and surgical services, the hospital also offers key specialty care. The 24-hour emergency room includes special pediatric emergency care provided by doctors board-certified in pediatrics and emergency medicine.

Awarded Hospital Centers

The Heart & Vascular Center was given a Platinum Performance Award for their heart attack care, and they are ranked as a high performer in heart bypass surgery.

Furthermore, CPMC’s Transplant Center has performed an impressive 6,000 kidney transplants, 2,000 liver transplants, and near 500 heart transplants over five decades and counting. Their multidisciplinary transplant team is well known for patient outcomes that surpass expectations.

The Birth Center offers many services, including natural childbirth coaching, professional lactation consultants, external and internal fetal monitoring, and a Level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit that provides the comfort of private rooms for newborns who need extra care, including rooms for twins.

Additionally, for people with complex gastroenterology problems, CPMC offers advanced imaging and minimally invasive procedures for disorders of the esophagus, stomach, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine, and colon.

Lead-Free K-Valve Advantages

With the addition of the Lead-Free K-Valves, Cathedral Hill Hospital was able to ensure the Cathedral Hill Hospital was equipped with an efficient automatic flow limiting valve to compliment the

K Valve (Automatic Flow Limiting Valve)

other recent upgrades.

Griswold Controls pioneered automatic flow limit control with the introduction of its stainless steel flow cartridge in 1960. Over fifty years later, our innovation, quality, and reliability continue to set us apart from the competition as we now offer a lead-free version of our most popular valves including the K Valve. Griswold Controls’ lead-free* brass K Valve meets the requirements of California’s AB1953 legislation and Federal Public Law 111-380. It is also ANSI/NSF-61 Annex G compliant. Our 3rd party certification for CA AB1953 and NSF-61 Annex G was performed by Truesdail Labs.
