Metal Ducts: submittal requirements

HVAC packages are equipment-heavy, and every unit gets checked against the schedule: capacity, electrical, dimensions, and sound. Ductwork, insulation, and air distribution ride along with their own data.

What reviewers expect in a metal ducts package

  • Equipment data keyed to schedule tags with capacities at the scheduled conditions
  • Electrical characteristics (MCA, MOCP, voltage) matching the electrical drawings
  • Fan curves with the operating point plotted
  • Diffuser/register/grille schedule with sizes, throws, and NC ratings
  • Duct construction standards and insulation data (R-value, jacket, thickness)
  • Vibration isolation and seismic restraint details where specified
  • Controls sequence compatibility — points list matching the BAS spec

Field tip

Highlight the scheduled operating point on every fan curve and capacity table. Reviewers reject packages where they have to find it themselves — marked curves get approved.
