Field checklist

Check the equipment/submittal material requirements for pool or chloramine exposure.
Verify duct, supports, fasteners, coating, and isolation materials match the corrosive environment.
Watch for dissimilar metals and unapproved hardware substitutions.
Keep supports and equipment accessible for inspection/maintenance.
Ask before covering, insulating, or substituting any hardware in corrosive air.

Ask foreman

This is pool/natatorium air. What material/coating/fastener requirements do you want verified before I connect or cover this?

Do not

Do not substitute standard hardware in corrosive pool air because it is what is on the cart.

Why it matters

Pool chemicals and chloramines can eat hardware and supports that would survive in a normal office building.
