Project Overview

Delta Wye Critical Solutions provided comprehensive electrical upgrades and electrification enhancements for the Rose Morin Apartments, a 60-unit housing complex built in 1970. The project addressed critical electrical safety concerns by removing outdated Federal Pacific electrical panels and installing modern, code-compliant systems. Additionally, the project focused on electrifying the development, replacing gas-powered systems with high-efficiency electric alternatives to reduce the Falmouth Housing Authority’s carbon footprint.

Challenges & Objectives
  • Outdated Electrical Systems – Federal Pacific panels posed safety and reliability risks, requiring full replacement.

  • Transition to Electrification – Eliminated fossil fuel reliance by replacing gas heating and water systems with energy-efficient electric heat pumps.

  • Sustainability & Carbon Reduction – Integrated clean energy solutions, including an EV charging station to support the Housing Authority’s electric vehicle fleet.

  • Seamless Implementation in an Occupied Complex – Upgraded systems while ensuring minimal disruption to residents.

Our Approach & Solutions
  • Full Electrical Panel Replacement – Installed modern, NEC-compliant panels in all 10 buildings.
  • Heat Pump System Integration – Upgraded central gas heating and water systems to dedicated electric heat pumps in each unit.
  • EV Charger Installation – Designed and implemented onsite electric vehicle charging to support sustainable operations.
  • Energy Efficiency & Compliance – Ensured all upgrades met current safety, energy efficiency, and decarbonization standards.
Key Results
  • Enhanced Resident Safety & Comfort – Delivered modern electrical systems with safer, more reliable power distribution.
