    This document contains sections from the 2012 Philippine Mechanical Engineering Code regarding mechanical regulations for buildings. It outlines requirements for refrigeration and air conditioning systems, including installing stop valves on large refrigeration systems and providing drainpipes or tubing for window air conditioners. It also describes regulations for water pumping systems that supply buildings, requiring the use of underground water tanks or cisterns that are filled by gravity from the main water supply. It lists approved systems for maintaining water pressure in buildings like overhead tanks or pneumatic tanks. Finally, it provides guidelines for installing fuel, gas, and steam piping in buildings, such as running pipes parallel to walls and supporting grouped piping on racks with sufficient space between pipes
