By the flow rate in GPM .. 1 GPM pumped discharge is considered ONE FU .. Normally a fixture unit is one cubic foot of water which is 7.48 gallons.
Fixture can also be used for storm drainage such as a roof and then you have to figure 3 sq ft =1 FU and a combination system one has to use interpolation to size the drainage /waste line
What else can I help you with?
How do you convert water fixture units to gpm?
A fixture unit is 1 cubic foot of water (7.48 gallons) If your using pumped drainage /soil system then for every GPM of flow rate one has to consider it as ONE FU
How many fixture unit is in 1.5 liters?
There is no answer as the units are incompatible and therefore not convertible. In plumbing, a Fixture Unit is equal to one cubic foot of water drained in an 1 1/4 pipe over one minute. A Fixture Unit is not a volume or a flow rate unit but a design factor.
Fixture unit per fixture equals 1.5 what does this mean?
A "fixture unit" is used to design the pipe sizes in a plumbing system. It does not equate directly to gallons because not all of the fixtures (aka sinks, toilets, tubs etc etc) will be "running" at the same time. Each fixture is assigned a "fixture unit" load by the local authority having jurisdiction (aka the local plumbing code). These are added to together and tables are used to determine the pipe size. EG, a typical bathroom sink is assigned 1.5SWFU (supply water Fixture units) and 1.5DFU (drainage fixture units) BUT a toilet might be 2.2SWFU and 4DFU.
What information can be found in the drainage fixture units chart?
