Choose the concise contract specification for project-manual use or the expanded reference for deeper engineering review, product evaluation, and coordination.
Use the following resources to connect the specification with model-specific dimensions, product data, BIM objects, and coordinated system documentation.
Architect & Specifier Resources
Main Hub
Central access to specifications, technical drawings, installation guides, and project documentation.
A complete project package should connect the contract specification to the exact submitted model. Include only documents that apply to the selected configuration.
CSI 3-Part specification — edited for the project and coordinated with the fixture schedule.
BIM/Revit or CAD file — checked against current dimensional product data.
Installation and rough-in instructions — including service-access requirements.
Compliance documentation — only certifications and listings applicable to the exact model.
Commissioning record — sensor setting, flow, pressure, temperature, power, and shutoff verification.
Closeout documents — O&M manual, warranty, parts list, finish care, and technical-support information.
Compliance & Document-Control Notice
Accessibility, plumbing, drinking-water, water-efficiency, and electrical requirements vary by jurisdiction and product configuration. Confirm every required certification, listing, flow rate, power supply, sensor type, pressure range, finish, and warranty against the current documentation for the exact submitted model. A collection-level statement does not establish certification for every product in that collection.
CSI Specifications & Product Cut Sheets FAQ
What is the difference between a CSI 3-Part specification and a product cut sheet?
A CSI 3-Part specification establishes project requirements under General, Products, and Execution. A product cut sheet documents the dimensions, materials, performance, options, and certifications of a particular model. Most submittal packages require both.
Which Fontana document belongs in the project manual?
Use Section 22 42 16.13 as the editable contract specification for commercial electronic lavatory faucets. Edit bracketed selections and coordinate the final language with the project drawings and fixture schedule.
When should the expanded engineering reference be used?
Use the expanded reference during design development, product evaluation, submittal review, approved-equal comparison, installation planning, commissioning, and facility handover. It supplements rather than replaces the concise 3-Part specification.
Are certifications the same for every Fontana product?
No. Certifications and listings are model- and configuration-specific. Verify the documentation for the exact faucet, dispenser, power option, flow-control device, and accessory package being submitted.
What should be checked before countertop fabrication or wall close-in?
Confirm the approved model, mounting-hole or wall-opening requirements, deck or wall thickness, spout-to-basin alignment, supply arrangement, power location, mixing method, cable routing, and access to serviceable components.
