About this file

This is a Plumbing General Purpose specification section (Section 22 00 00) for the "Design New HVAC System and Associated Upgrades B001 & B001A" federal construction project, dated March 5, 2026 (Addendum #1). The specification establishes technical requirements, standards, and execution procedures for all plumbing work associated with the project.

The specification requires 316L stainless steel pipe and fittings for the deionized water system, with joints to be welded and press-fit fittings prohibited. Valves must be bronze with threaded bodies for connections 2.5 inches and smaller, conforming to standards including ASME B16.34, MSS SP-85, and ANSI Z21.22/CSA 4.4 for relief valves. Pipe hangers and supports must conform to MSS SP-58 with specific type restrictions and installation requirements. The specification incorporates multiple industry standards including ICC IPC (2024), AWWA standards for water disinfection (C651, C652, C606), NFPA 90A for air systems, and ASME standards for valves and boiler controls. Government approval is required for shop drawings (SD-02), product data including backflow prevention assemblies (SD-03), test reports for backflow assemblies and disinfection (SD-06), and operation and maintenance data (SD-10). All plumbing systems must pass drainage and vent tests including smoke testing (or alternative peppermint testing with approval), building sewer tests, and water supply system tests. The entire domestic water distribution system requires disinfection using hypochlorite or liquid chlorine at a minimum 50 ppm concentration, with verification of at least 25 ppm residual chlorine maintained for 24 hours and bacteriological testing confirming zero coliform organisms per 100 milliliters before system acceptance.
