Water lines should typically be installed 8-10 inches above the finished floor to allow for proper functioning of the sink. This height provides enough space for drainage and easy access for maintenance and repairs.
To convert inches of mercury to inches of water, you can use the conversion factor of 1 inch of mercury = 13.6 inches of water. Therefore, 29.92 inches of mercury is equal to 29.92 x 13.6 = 407.552 inches of water.
35 inches of water is equivalent to approximately 1.27 psi. This can be calculated by dividing the height of the water column (35 inches) by the conversion factor (27.71 inches of water column per psi).
0.5 psig is equivalent to 13.8 inches of water column.
The reason is quite simple. Your water pipes are under your house, condo, apartment, etc. the higher up you use the water the lower the water pressure, because it uses more pressure to move the water up to the 2nd floor than to the first thus weakening the stream of water.
There are 46.15 inches of water in a 20 psi pressure. This can be calculated using the formula: 1 psi = 2.307 feet of water, which is approximately 27.69 inches. 20 psi x 27.69 inches/psi = 46.15 inches.
Your trap arm should be coming out from the wall at a height from the floor of 16-18", the cleanout just below the tee on the plumbing stack. The water lines should be at around 10-12 inches above the floor
Drip irrigation lines should be buried about 6-12 inches deep to ensure optimal water distribution and efficiency.
The other water lines are going to other fixtures. Your lines must be comming out of the floor for you to see the other lines. They are all teed together and only one line comming up to your faucet.
Inside the walls.
you should dig the floor.
Cold water lines may have more insulation than hot water lines, otherwise they should both freeze unless there is some agent in the water.
The shower curtain should hang at least six inches below the edge of the tub to prevent water from spraying onto the floor. The curtain shouldn't hang too far into the tub or mold will develop on the curtain from trapped water.
You should immediately try to mop up, or remove as much, if not all, of the water as you can. Leaving the water on the wood floor will cause it to warp out of shape.
You need to know the region's freezing depth. In southern Ontario it is 8 inches. Then you go down at least 12 inches to install the pipe. Be sure that as you excavate that no damage will be done to present lines which may be running.
Mop the floor with hot water and soap (let it sit on the floor for about 15 minutes) . If the floor is really dirty you can buy a mild floor stripping product from your hardware store or you can rent a floor buffing machine. When the top dirt has been removed you can scrub the grout lines by hand with a green scrubbing pad with soap and water.
Water lines should be flushed regularly to maintain optimal water quality and system efficiency. It is recommended to flush water lines at least once a year to remove any buildup of sediment, minerals, or bacteria that can affect water quality and system performance.
Possibly, but the supply lines should be in the wall. Even on a slab house, the water should come into the house at the water heater and then be in the walls. Possible heat vent leak? I'm assuming a slab house because if there was access underneath, you would be able to tell if there was a leak.
