Common use of HVAC Systems Clause in Contracts

HVAC Systems. a) HVAC air distribution requires the establishment of minimum Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) performance to enhance indoor air quality in building by complying with minimum requirements of ASHRAE. b) Provide properly installed condensate drains to prevent build‐up of condensate in air handling unit or other equipment drain pans. c) All closed loop heating and cooling systems shall be treated with a corrosion inhibitor. d) For HVAC piping systems, provide isolation valves at all pieces of equipment and coils for maintenance and service. Locate the valves where they can be reached for service. e) HVAC piping insulation shall be installed on all piping, valves, terminal units and all section. f) Do not leave un‐insulated gaps between components that can cause condensation. g) Location of temperature sensors and thermostats shall be coordinated with furniture, equipment and window locations. h) Kitchen hood design must meet NFPA regulations as well as all local health department requirements. i) Air filters are to be changed at the time of occupancy. j) Provide acoustical sound boots at ceiling return air grilles at offices, meeting rooms and conference rooms if walls do not extend to the roof/floor deck above or if a separate return air duct system is not provided. k) Air handlers are to be equipped with variable frequency drives to control fan motor speed.
