The distribution pipe from the bulk oil storage tank to the high level day was set up by others but the tenderer shall allow for connection to the high level day tank.  The tenderer shall also provide and install high capacity strainers along the supply pipe and the burner feed pipe.

1.1.11   PIPE SUPPORTS

The variety and type of supports shall be kept to a minimum and their layout will be such as to facilitate secure and guide fixing to match concrete masonry or wood.

Consideration shall be given when designing supports to the maintenance of desired pipe fall and the controlling of pipe moves into a longitudinal axial direction only.

The sub-contractor shall provide and install all steel work forming part of pipe support assemblies and will be responsible for making good any damage to builders work associated with builders work installation.
