Plumbing systems and fixtures refer to the network of pipes, valves, and fixtures that are used to supply and drain water, as well as dispose of waste and sewage in a building. These systems include supply lines for clean water, drains for wastewater, pipes for natural gas or propane, and fixtures such as faucets, sinks, toilets, showers, and bathtubs.
Plumbing systems are designed to deliver clean water and remove wastewater from a building efficiently and safely. They are also responsible for controlling the pressure and temperature of the water supply, and preventing backflow of contaminated water into the drinking water supply.
Plumbing fixtures are the devices and appliances that connect to the plumbing system, such as faucets, toilets, and showers. These fixtures are designed to be durable and efficient, while also meeting specific needs and preferences.
Overall, plumbing systems and fixtures are essential components that contribute to the comfort, health, and safety of a building’s occupants.
