IPC (International Plumbing Code)

The International Plumbing Code (IPC) is a set of standards and regulations that ensure plumbing systems in buildings are safe, reliable, and efficient. It covers the design, installation, and maintenance of plumbing fixtures, drainage, venting, and water supply systems. The IPC helps prevent health hazards like leaks, contamination, and water backups by establishing clear guidelines for materials, sizing, and proper system layout. By adhering to the IPC, builders and plumbers ensure plumbing systems work effectively, comply with safety laws, and protect public health.
