- return air plenum
-horizontal surfaces
-impingement points (e.g. turning vanes, elbows, transitions)
- filter racks and filter media
- blower
- thermal coils
- interior surfaces of the supply air ducts
-horizontal surfaces
- impingement points (e.g. turning vanes, elbows, transitions)
- volume dampers
- terminal boxes
- supply diffusers
Note that depending on the size and complexity of the HVAC system, access may require the use
of ladders, lifts or scaffolds using appropriate methods of fall protection.
6.5.1.2 Methods of Access
The following list summarizes methods of accessing HVAC system components for inspection:
- through existing service openings (i.e., access doors and panels)
- by disassembly of housing
- by installation of service openings (may range from 1” diameter holes to access
doors)
The HVAC/Electrical Professional shall assess the accessibility of each HVAC system
component to be inspected. If an HVAC system component is not accessible, the Environmental
Professional shall be consulted to determine whether installation of a service opening will likely
disturb asbestos-containing materials. After such consultation, if approved by the Environmental
Professional, the HVAC/EIectrical Professional shall install service openings as needed to
inspect the HVAC components listed in 6.5.1.1.
NOTE: Disassembly of housing and installation of service openings mt^ only be performed
by the HVAC/Electrical Professional and replacement plates, panels or access doors shall be
installed in accordance with NFPA, NADCA and SMACNA standards and NYC building
codes.'
