| | 325,000. GRILL- 35,000. COOKTOP- 30,000. DRYER- 22,000. |
| | WATER HEATER- 36,000. REVISE THE RISER TO SHOW THE |
| | COMPLETE PIPING SYSTEM INCLUDING PIPE RUNS TO ALL NEW |
| | AND EXISTING APPLIANCES AND EQUIPMENT, AND SHOW THE |
| | CORRECT TOTAL AND INDIVIDUAL LOADS OF THE SYSTEM- |
| | SECTIONS G2412.3, G2412.4, & G2413.2 FBC RES. PLEASE |
| | NOTE THAT THE TOTAL DEVELOPED LENGTH OF SYSTEM WAS |
| | INDICATED TO BE 60FT., AND THE POOL HEATER AND GRILL |
| | WERE LISTED AS OPTIONAL ON THE APPROVED PLAN. PLEASE |
| | VERIFY IN FIELD THAT THE APPLIANCES ARE INSTALLED |
| | BEFORE RESUBMITTING PLANS. |
