Missing access panel notes around dampers/equipment
Find access notes before closing or blocking dampers, coils, filters, VAVs, controls, or equipment.
Stop if
- Where is the access for this damper/equipment, and is this duct allowed to block it?
Watch out
- Do not bury anything that someone must inspect, balance, service, reset, or replace.
Check
- Search plan/detail/schedule for access notes.
- Check ceiling grid/access panel location.
- Confirm service side and clear opening.
- Coordinate with other trades if blocked.
- Ask before installing duct that kills access.
