Damper Handle Label And Position
Damper handles and labels need to make sense to the balancer and future service crew after the ceiling closes.
Watch out
- Do not move a balanced damper without direction. Do not cover a handle. Do not assume handle direction always equals blade direction without checking.
Check
- Handle reachable, quadrant locked, blade position known, label/tag visible, and access panel location marked.
Steps
- Handle reachable, quadrant locked, blade position known, label/tag visible, and access panel location marked.
Say this to your foreman
Do you want this damper handle labeled/marked before ceiling close, and is the current blade position locked for TAB?
