COMMERCIAL PLUMBING by Stout Plumbing
3 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN COMMERCIAL PLUMBING AND RESIDENTIAL PLUMBING
Plumbing is plumbing and to a certain extent, there’s no difference between commercial plumbing and residential plumbing. They both use the same kinds of material and they both fulfill the same basic function. Here in Benton commercial plumbing provided by the same companies that provide residential plumbing services. Even so, there are a few distinctions that a good service understands, and which they will address when dealing with a commercial plumbing project. Here are three of the biggest.
Size – The most obvious difference is in the size and extent of commercial plumbing, which often requires a lot more pipes and outlets than residential plumbing. Businesses need to provide toilets and sinks for both their customers and their employees, which means a hugely increased demand that residential systems don’t have to support.
- Multiple floors – Residential plumbing usually entails no more than two floors’ worth of plumbing. An office building usually has multiple stories, all of which require sinks, toilets and the like. Gravity plays a huge role in functioning pipes, and water pressure is more important in buildings with multiple stories. A good plumber understands that when taking on a commercial job.
- Variety of problems – Residential plumbing tends to encounter variations of the same basic issues. Commercial plumbing, on the other hand, faces a wide variety of issues, which requires an understanding of a larger number of solutions. Plumbers need to be up on a larger number of codes, and be prepared for problems that may never occur in residential settings.
