Stop if

Hold point on ductwork in data centers: I have the location, photo, drawing/detail/spec/submittal, and what I checked. Who should verify before this gets covered, tested, started, labeled, rerouted, or turned over?

Watch out

Do not reroute or flip diffusers/grilles without checking the data hall airflow plan.
