EGWW Aquatherm Pre-Proposal RFI Log

Copper is stated as the new piping system please confirm the following:

1. Per P100 it is stated that press can be used from ½” to 2” - Refer to P100 2018 section 5.3.6.8 “Press fitting systems may be used between ½” to 2” where approved by code and with approvals and certifications but shall not be used in concealed locations”. HDR concurs -- press fittings may be used in sizes up to 2”.

i. Can Mechanical couplings such as Victaulic or Groove Lock be used on 2” and above Copper? No, per P100. HDR concurs.

ii. Can press be used in lieu of Solder or brazing on sizes 2-1/2” and larger? No, P100 indicates that press fittings can only be used ½” to 2”. HDR concurs.

iii. Can Wirsbo/PEX be used to final run outs to kitchen sinks or lavatories? No per P100. HDR concurs.

iv. Can Stainless Steel be used as a piping material with thread or grooved fittings? SS can be substituted for copper but fittings must be requirements in P100. HDR concurs and suggests that mechanical fittings that comply with applicable plumbing codes can be used in stainless steel piping at exposed locations. Concealed fittings must be welded.

v. Please indicate the sizes of copper that are required to be soldered and what ones are to be brazed? Typically, 2” and under are solder, 2-1/2” and above are brazed. This is acceptable. HDR concurs.

1. During the job walk there was green Aquatherm piping/fittings spotted on other non-potable piping. Please clarify if there is any scope on the following:

1. Rainwater piping (the fittings are the same material as the domestic piping)? No replacement of rainwater piping is anticipated.

2. HVAC piping? JNo replacement of HVAC piping is anticipated.

3. Non-Potable piping (IE irrigation, boiler make up, etc) No replacement of non-potable water except what is indicated in the PDS is anticipated.

2. Overall, please be specific on what Aquatherm is going to remain in the building:

1. Rainwater? See the SOW

MCK RFI 001: Re: (221116 FL - Domestic Water Piping_E, p10): In lieu of the current piping schedule listed in the aforementioned reference is it acceptable to use the following materials & joint types for all domestic water (Project 1 and Project 2)? This would align better with standard practice for this application.

A. Aboveground domestic water piping, NPS 2 and smaller:

1. Hard copper tube, ASTM B 88, Type L wrought-copper, solder-joint fittings; and soldered joints.

B. Aboveground domestic water piping, NPS 2-1/2 to NPS 4:

1. Sch10 stainless steel pipe, grooved fittings and grooved joints (Gruvlok or Victaulic).

MCK RFI 002: There appear to be plumbing as-built sheets missing from the 06_PLUMBING (As-Builts) folder. See Attachment 01 for a list of the sheets we were unable to find (missing sheets highlighted in yellow). Are these sheets available?

All available drawing files are loaded on the drive. There is another folder with autocads that I found where these might be located:

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/11n55aPkuvzt-q-b2alQQb2Q2BN4CsrgM

MCK RFI 003: Verbal comments were made during the pre-bid walk that the scope for these projects (Project 1 & 2) shall not include any work in TI spaces. Is this correct?

Correct. All work including tie-ins will be done in the common spaces.
