PART 1 - GENERAL
SCHEDULE 0 - RELATED DOCUMENTS

PRODUCT DATA SHEET 0 - Drawings and general provisions of the Contract, including General and
Supplementary Conditions and Division 1 Specification Sections, apply to this Section.

SCHEDULE 1 - SUMMARY
PRODUCT DATA SHEET 0 - All filters shall be tested and rated in accordance with ASHRAE Standard
52-76. Specified efficiency for filters is an average efficiency.

PRODUCT DATA SHEET 1 - Filters shall be rated as Class I or Class II in accordance with UL.
PRODUCT DATA SHEET 2 - Should air handling systems be used for temporary cooling during
construction, provide temporary filters as required of equivalent efficiencies to those specified in addition
to the two sets required above. Temporary filters shall be replaced when the pressure drop is double the
initial pressure drop with filters of equivalent efficiencies to those specified in addition to the two sets
required above.

PRODUCT DATA SHEET 3 - Provide holding frames and fasteners suitable for upstream or downstream
filter servicing as indicated on the drawings.

PRODUCT DATA SHEET 4 - Overall filter bank dimensions as indicated on the drawings.
PRODUCT DATA SHEET 5 - Provide filter gauge and piping as required to indicate filter pressure
differential.
SCHEDULE 2 - SUBMITTALS
PRODUCT DATA SHEET 0 - Submit each type of filter with holding frame.
SCHEDULE 3 - COORDINATION

PRODUCT DATA SHEET 0 - Refer to other Division 23 sections for component and equipment ratings.
All components, fittings, equipment, coils, specialties, etc., shall meet the component pressure rating
listed.
SCHEDULE 4 - EXTRA MATERIALS
PRODUCT DATA SHEET 0 - Provide two (2) complete sets of filters. One set shall be installed just prior
to balancing but after cleaning of duct and air handling systems. The second set of filters shall be turned
over to Owner for future use
