At County Permit Drawings, we engineer your comfort, safety, and efficiency through precise MEP drawings that power your project from within.

Overview

MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) drawings are essential to the internal systems that make any structure livable, functional, and compliant with safety standards. These systems regulate air, water, and power making coordination critical during both permitting and construction. At County Permit Drawings, we provide MEP drawings that are fully aligned with building codes, energy regulations, and architectural layouts. Whether for new construction or remodels, our MEP sets simplify permit approvals and prevent costly site conflicts.

What We Provide

Our MEP drawing sets are designed for permit submittal and contractor use, fully coordinated with your architectural and structural plans

General Notes

General Notes

Lists codes like NEC, IPC, IMC, and IECC. Includes design criteria, system standards, efficiency requirements, and MEP-specific abbreviations.

Legends & Symbols

Legends & Symbols

Standardized MEP symbols, line styles, material tags, and notes for reviewer clarity and field coordination.

Electrical Drawings

Electrical Drawings

Displays outlet, switch, and fixture locations, circuit routing, panelboard schedules, and load calculations if needed. Also includes smoke detectors and GFCIs.

Plumbing Drawings

Plumbing Drawings

Includes supply and drainage (DWV) piping, pipe sizing, slopes, cleanouts, venting, and fixture placement. Complies with IPC or UPC plumbing codes.

Mechanical/HVAC Drawings

Mechanical/HVAC Drawings

Shows HVAC system layout with ducts, grilles, unit locations, tonnage, airflow direction, and thermostat placements. Designed for comfort and ventilation codes.

Riser Diagrams

Riser Diagrams

Shows vertical system connections for water, drain, and electrical services between floors, including service entry and equipment termination.

Schedules

Schedules

Provides equipment specifications for HVAC, lighting, panels, and plumbing fixtures. Supports accurate procurement and inspection.

Details

Details

Includes specific component callouts like water heater connections, backflow prevention, condensate drainage, and exhaust vent terminations.

What We Need From You

To create accurate MEP drawings, we require specific information about your project

1

Architectural Plans

Detailed floor and roof plans to ensure mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems are properly integrated.

2

HVAC Preferences

Information on the desired system type, brand, efficiency rating, and location of indoor or outdoor units.

3

Lighting Plan

Placement of lights, switches, and control systems along with fixture specifications.

4

Plumbing Fixture List

List of all plumbing fixtures, their locations, and any special water system requirements.

5

Utility Info

Locations and specifications for existing or proposed water, sewer, gas, and electrical connections.

6

Applicable Codes

Any state or city energy or safety standards such as NEC, IPC, IMC, or Title 24 that must be followed.

How We Work With You

Our 5-Step Collaborative Process

Our MEP drawing workflow is efficient, responsive, and coordinated with your architectural and structural team

Project Input

You share architectural floor plans, roof layouts, and your equipment preferences (e.g., HVAC tonnage, panel capacity, water heater type).

Code Compliance Review

We verify which codes apply (NEC, IPC, IECC, Title 24, etc.) and confirm system sizing, zoning requirements, and energy standards.

System Design

We layout MEP systems for HVAC, lighting, power, and plumbing: factoring performance, accessibility, and code requirements.

Coordination & Detailing

Our team finalizes duct, circuit, and pipe routing. We integrate riser diagrams, schedules, and cross-discipline checks for consistency.

Final Delivery

You receive a clean, organized MEP drawing set in PDF and DWG formats: ready for permit submission and contractor bidding.

Role in Permit Drawings

MEP drawings are critical for verifying that a building’s internal systems are safe, efficient, and code-compliant. City reviewers evaluate them for energy usage, fire safety, and accessibility compliance. Without MEP plans, your permit application will likely be considered incomplete. Our drawings ensure that every circuit, pipe, and vent is accounted for helping you avoid revisions, delays, and inspection issues.
