About this file
This is a Plumbing Design Standards document for Utah Valley University (UVU), prepared for a state and local contract opportunity involving the Division of Facilities and Construction Management (DFCM) for Programming & Design services related to the Student Athletic Center renovation project. The standards document establishes comprehensive plumbing requirements in CSI format that supersede DFCM Design Requirements when conflicts arise. Key requirements include mandatory use of licensed journeyman plumbers on-site at all times, new materials only (no refurbished or repurposed equipment), compliance with International Building Code (IBC), International Plumbing Code (IPC), IECC/ASHRAE 90.1, and Utah High Performance Building Standards. The document specifies detailed requirements across multiple plumbing divisions including domestic water piping (Type L copper soldered or press-fit systems for 4" and smaller), sanitary waste and vent systems, facility storm drainage with primary and secondary roof drains, water heaters, commercial plumbing fixtures with specific manufacturer requirements (Zurn, Sloan, Kohler, American Standard), and drinking fountains with dual-level configurations and bottle fill stations. All plumbing systems must incorporate comprehensive metering, gauging, valve isolation at multiple levels, and laminated identification systems with specific color-coding schemes for different water types.
Operations and Maintenance requirements mandate green buckram binders with laminated valve location drawings in 11x17 format, minimum 36-inch-wide plumbing chases with aluminum backing insulation, and valve identification on ceiling grids. Insulation standards require fiberglass pipe insulation with PVC jacketing (color-coded by system type) with minimum thicknesses of 1 inch for domestic hot water and ½ inch for cold water, with calcium silicate protection at hangers for pipes 1-1/4" and larger. The project budget is $3,100,000, with all plumbing materials and equipment required to be manufactured in the USA. Backflow prevention assemblies must be installed on domestic cold water and fire protection services with reduced pressure prevention devices located above ground in weather-sheltered areas with three feet of clear space on either sides. The standards encompass additional specifications for water softeners (Step Saver manufacturer with remote salt fill capability), thermostatic mixing valves, water hammer arrestors (PDI-WH 201 certified), and BACnet-capable water meters (Onicon manufacturer), with specific installation methods for below-grade PVC requiring ASTM D 2321 compliance and owner's representative observation of soil compaction testing.

PLUMBING DIVISION 22 00 00
The UVU Standards are provided in CSI format for ease of locating requirements from UVU.
These requirements are in addition to the State of Utah Division of Facilities and Construction Management (DFCM) Design Requirements. In the event of any discrepancy between the DFCM Design and UVU Standards requirements, the Architectural/Engineering Team shall use the UVU Standards over the DFCM Design Requirements.
Items below are not intended to be fully encompassing of all the requirements needed to be specified for the completion of a project and the Engineer of Record shall provide their expertise for full completion. Items below that UVU does not intend to currently give direction on are left to the discretion of the Engineer of Record.
