Ask Foreman

Can you verify this before I keep going? I’m looking at: Forgetting to install access doors at every fire damper, control valve, and coil in the system. What’s the approved correction for this job?

Do not

Do not hide, force, cover, or “make it work” if this affects safety, access, airflow, rated assemblies, supports, equipment, or inspection. Stop and verify the approved correction.
