Plumbing Standards

Plumbing standards are rules and guidelines that ensure water systems are safe, reliable, and efficient. They cover how pipes, fixtures, and appliances are installed and maintained, emphasizing leak prevention, water quality, and sanitation. These standards help protect public health by providing consistent practices that minimize contamination and waste. They are developed by experts and organizations, often aligning with building codes, to ensure plumbing systems function properly throughout a building’s lifespan. Following these standards ensures safety, longevity, and compliance with local regulations.
