2. Provide underground facility tracer wires per ARS 40-360.22.
3. Provide fixture descriptions for all plumbing fixtures. Reference: Section 402, IPC 2012 and Section 107.2.1, IBC 2012.
4. If the showers do not have pre-fabricated receptors, provide details to show that the construction of the receptors complies with the requirements of Section 417.5.2, IPC 2012.
5. Provide shower control valves that comply with the requirements of Sections 424.3 and 424.5, IPC 2012.
6. Provide equipment data for the water heater. Reference: Section 107.2.1, IBC 2012.

8. If the specified water heater is not supplied with integral heat traps, provide heat traps on the supply and discharge piping. Reference: Section C404.4, IECC 2012.
9. Clarify the water pressure calculations. What was the basis for assuming the water pressure available at the property line? Verify that the pressure losses from the water meter and the reduced pressure backflow preventer are as determined by the manufacturers. How is the hot water recirculation pump contributing to the system pressure drop? Why is the total water fixture count used in the pressure loss calculations different from that determined in the plumbing fixture schedule? Reference: Section 604.1, IPC 2012.
10. What is the source of the fixture units used in the plumbing fixture schedule? Reference: Section 604.1, IPC 2012.

16. Verify that all of the vents rise vertically to at least 6" above the flood rims of the fixtures they protect prior to running horizontally. Reference: Section 905.4, IPC 2012.
17. Clarify the waste and vent riser diagram by showing each fixture just once (i.e. don't try to show both the plan view and the riser diagram at the same time). Reference: Section 107.2.1, IBC 2012.
07/13/2015 ROBERT SHERRY MECHANICAL-COMMERCIAL REVIEW Reqs Change 1. Provide energy code compliance calculations for the additions to the building envelope; use the climate zone for Tucson. Provide sufficient detail on the drawings to evaluate the energy compliance of the additions to the building envelope. The information shall, as a minimum, include U-factors of the envelope systems and fenestration components, along with the R-values of the insulation and the SHGC for the fenestration. (Note that the description of the wall types on sheet A1.1 calls for R-19 batt insulation in the 2x4 exterior walls but R-13 batt insulation is noted elsewhere in the drawing set and in the HVAC load calculations.) Reference: Sections R101.4.3, R101.5, R103.2, and R401.2, International Energy Conservation Code 2012.
2. Provide NFRC fenestration product ratings for the U-factor and the SHGC values on COMcheck or use the appropriate default U-factor and SHGC values from Tables R303.1.3 (1), R303.1.3 (2) and R303.1.3.(3), IECC 2012. Specify the required U-factors and Solar Heat Gain Coefficients (SHGC) for the fenestration and doors on the architectural drawings. Reference: Section R303.1.3, IECC 2012.
3. Show how the building envelope is to be constructed to limit the air leakage per the requirements of Section R402.4, IECC 2012.
4. Show the air leakage rating of the air handlers (ASHRAE Standard 193). Reference: Sections R103.2 and R403.2.2.1, IECC 2012.
5. Show that the two heat pumps are being installed in accordance with the conditions of their listings and the manufacturer's installation requirements (i.e. show that there is adequate maintenance space and clearance for air flow). Reference: Section 304.1, IMC 2012.
6. Show that a separation of at least ten feet exists between air intake openings and exhaust openings. Reference: 401.4, IMC 2012.
7. The balancing information on sheet M1.1 calls for 80 CFM of supply to each toilet room but only 50 CFM of exhaust (intermittent). Complete recirculation of ventilation air from toilet rooms is prohibited. Reference: Footnotes f and g, Table 403.3 and Section 403.2.1 (4), IMC 2012.
8. Provide sufficient dampers in the ductwork to ensure that the HVAC systems can be adjusted to distribute the required amount of ventilation air. Reference: Section 403.7, IMC 2012.
9. Provide an air balancing report prior to the final mechanical inspection to verify that the HVAC systems are capable of supplying and exhausting at least the minimum air flow rates called for in the design drawings. The balancing shall be performed by a qualified balancing contractor in accordance with the procedural standards of either the National Environmental Balancing Bureau (NEBB) or the Associated Air Balance Council (AABC). Reference: Section 403.7, IMC 2012.
