For architects and builders
What we need from you, and when
Little is needed to start. Each item below makes a sheet more exact; none of them holds up a first conversation.
The schematic set
Plans and elevations, the count of baths, kitchens and outdoor fixtures, and any mechanical room the architect has drawn.
Fixture and appliance selections
A specification sheet for each fixture. Rough-in data decides valve bodies, drain heights and carrier placement.
Structure and mechanical
Framing, shaft sizes and the mechanical engineer's loads, so stacks and chases agree with the structure.
Revisions
An issue date and a clouded change. We reissue the affected sheet only, and list what moved.
At design development
Questions we raise on paper
These come up on most custom homes. Each goes to the architect as a sketch and a question.
Typical conflicts
A drain that lands under a niche or a window
A pot filler on an exterior wall that sees a freeze or a heat load
A long hot-water run to a far primary suite
Two baths stacked over a bedroom, with no chase between them
A shower with several body sprays on one valve
Standing
