Check all penetrations through building elements and ensure tightness and integrity of Leakage Tests: After each ductwork system that is constructed for ductwork pressure classification over 3 inches is completed, test for ductwork leakage in accordance with Section 23 31 00. Clean ductwork internally of dust and debris, unit by unit as it is installed. Clean external surfaces of foreign substances which might cause corrosive deterioration of metal or, where ductwork is to be painted, might interfere with painting or cause paint deterioration. Strip protective paper from stainless steel ductwork surfaces and repair finish wherever the finish has been damaged. Temporary Closure: At ends of ductwork which are not connected to equipment or air distribution devices at the time of ductwork installation, provide temporary closure of polyethylene film or other covering that will prevent entrance of dust and debris until final ductwork connections are to be completed. Check pressure class of ductwork against fan dead head to verify adequacy. BB. Ductwork Accessories:
