APPLICATION OF LABELS A. The shop that installs the associated piping or duct will be responsible for applying the correct labels. If the piping is to be insulated or painted after installation, the original shop must return to place the labels. If existing piping is to be insulated and labeled it will be the insulators responsibly to apply the correct labels. B. Piping runs throughout any areas including those above drop ceilings, under floor, and those exposed to view when access doors or access panels are opened shall be identified by means of pipe markers. Concealed areas, for purposes of this identification section, are those areas that cannot be seen except by demolition of the building elements. In addition to pipe markers, arrow markers shall be used to indicate direction of flow. C. As a minimum, locate pipe markers as follows: 1. Provide a pipe marker at each valve to indicate proper identification of pipe contents. Where several valves exist on one (1) header, it is necessary to mark only the header. 2. Every 25 feet in exposed and concealed areas on all piping systems. Provide at least one (1) pipe marker in each room on all piping systems. 3. At each branch or riser take off on piping systems, excluding short takeoffs for fixtures and terminal units. 4. Provide a pipe marker and an arrow marker at every point of pipe entry or exit where the pipe penetrates a wall, floor, service column or enclosure. 5. At access doors, manholes and similar access points that permit view of concealed piping. 6. Near major equipment items and other points of origination and termination.
