What do you need to know to size the water distribution pipe using the small commercial method?
- Length from building isolation to furthest fixture
- Calculate available pressure after isolation
- Fixture units
How do you calculate the available pressure after isolation?
How do you calculate pressure loss from elevation gain?
(Pressure at meter) - (pressure loss through meter) - (pressure loss through DCVA) - (pressure loss from elevation gain from isolation to furthest fixture)
Pressure loss from elevation gain = 10 KPa per 1 m
What do you need to know to size the water service pipe using the small commercial method?
- Length of pipe from property line to building isolation
- Static pressure of the water service pipe
- Total fixture units
How do you calculate the static pressure of the water service pipe?
Pressure at property line (given) - (pressure loss from elevation gain from property line to building isolation)
How do you know when to use low temperature flux? High temperature flux? No flux?
High temperature flux - brazing
Low temperature flux - soldering
No flux -brazing same materials (ex: copper to copper)
