TAB cannot reach balancing damper

If TAB cannot reach a balancing damper, treat it as a real coordination problem before ceiling/insulation closes.

Stop if

• TAB will not be able to reach this damper. Do you want the damper moved or access coordinated?

Watch out

• Do not bury a balancing damper where TAB cannot reach it.

Check

• Locate the damper handle/indicator.
• Check ceiling/access panel location.
• Verify damper is reachable after insulation/ceiling.
• Photo blocked access.
• Ask whether damper must move or access panel must be added.
