What do I check for finish work: tab / startup readiness finish check?
Finish work should leave the system ready for test-and-balance and startup. If the TAB tech cannot reach dampers or the diffuser is wrong, the ceiling is not really done.
Watch out Stop if TAB/startup issues involve controls, electrical, fire/smoke dampers, equipment safety, or changing balancing settings without authorization. Check Confirm air devices are installed and correct. Make sure dampers are accessible and not buried. Check flex/branch connections for obvious kinks or disconnections. Look for closed fire dampers/blocked paths only under direction - do not tamper. Report missing labels/access before TAB arrives. Steps Confirm air devices are installed and correct.

Report missing labels/access before TAB arrives. Say this to your foreman Before TAB comes through, do you want me to verify devices, damper access, labels, and visible connection issues room-by-room?
