| | EXPANSION TO BE USED PER SECTION 607.3. IF A HEATER PAN |
| | IS USED ON FIRST FLOOR A PAN DRAIN IS REQUIRED AND MUST |
| | GO OUTSIDE BUILDING SECTION 504.7.2. |
| | |
| | **RESPONSE NOTED AND COMMENT WAS PARTIALLY ADDRESSED, |
| | HOWEVER THE INSTALLATION OF A CHECK VALVE IS NOT |
| | PROTECTION AGAINST THERMAL EXPANSION.THE INSTALLATION |
| | OF AN EXPANSION TANK OR A CALIBRATED PRESSURE RELIEF |
| | VALVE ARE EXAMPLES OF A MEANS FOR THERMAL EXPANSION |
| | CONTROL. CLEARLY INDICATE THE LOCATION OF THE THERMAL |
| | EXPANSION CONTROL DEVICE USED ON RESUBMITTED P1 & P2 |
| | SHEETS. PER FBC-PLUMBING SECTION 607.3. |
| | |
| | 2. AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER BRANCH DRAIN TO BE 3" TO |
| | SANITARY TEE SECTION 406.3. |
| | |
| | **RESPONSE NOTED, HOWEVER SHEET P1 FIRST FLOOR PLAN- |
| | PLUMBING IS STILL INDICATING THE WRONG BRANCH DRAIN |
| | PIPE SIZE OF 2" FOR THE WASHING MACHINE. PLEASE CORRECT |
| | AND CORRELATE WITH THE SANITARY RISER ON SHEET P2. PER |
| | FBC- PLUMBING SECTION 406.3. |

| | REQUIRED TO BE INSTALLED WHERE QUICK CLOSING VALVES ARE |

| | WASHING MACHINES, DISHWASHERS, & ICE MAKERS). CLEARLY |
| | INDICATE THE REQUIRED WATER-HAMMER ARRESTORS ON BOTH |
| | THE HOT/COLD WATER SUPPLY TO THE WASHING MACHINE. THE |
| | RISER DIAGRAM INDICATES THE WATER-HAMMER ARRESTOR |
| | MISSING FROM THE HOT WATER SUPPLY TO THE WASHING |
| | MACHINE. WATER-HAMMER ARRESTOR IS ALSO REQUIRED ON THE |
| | HOT WATER SUPPLY TO THE DISHWASHER. PLEASE CORRECT THIS |
