Water appliances (e.g. showers, taps, WC cistems) are used at irregular intervals and often for short periods of time. Consequently, itis not usually not sensible to size the header based on all the appliances operating simultaneously. Taking this into account, the following table gives suggested maximum number of water appliances (e.g. showers, taps, WC cisterns) that can be fed off a given domestic water header size. During detailed design, the domestic water system hydraulics should be calculated. This is especially important for systems with either long pipe runs or heavy peak demands. ‘Suggested Water Header Size 1 Appliances 15 mm NB ("Vp inch) 210 4 Appliances 20 mm NB (3%, inch) Sto 8 Appliances 25mm NB(1 inch) 910.50 Appliances 40 mm NB (1 "fp inch) 55 10.99 Appliances 50 mm NB (2 inch) 100 to 200 Appliances 65 mm NB (2 "/2 inch)osio12012 Domestic Water Design Data ee aie PRIVACY POLICY LEGAL CONTACT US myChemEis not endorsed bynor associated with the Institution of Chemical Engineers, Institute of Chemical Engineers, American Institute of Chemical Engineers, South African Institution of Chemical Engineers, Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers or any other organisation.
