Stop if

Hold point on cold surface condensation check: I have the location, photo, drawing/detail/spec/submittal, and what I checked. Who should verify before this gets covered, tested, started, labeled, or turned over?

Watch out

Do not leave bare metal on cold supply if spec requires insulation. Do not wrap over wet surfaces without drying/correcting cause.
