1. On page E-101, note 8 says to provide a new motor starter for AHU-1 and note 4 says it needs to be based on a 10 HP motor. But on M601 the information listed for AHU-1 say there is 2-4Hp motors. We need more information to get pricing on a starter. Typically the mechanical contractor furnishes the starters so all of associated equipment is compatible with each other.
