It provides comprehensive coverage of plumbing materials, the latest tools and equipment, and pipe joining and supporting methods. The chapter on plumbing fixtures and appliances provides the clearances required for barrier-free fixtures. Barrier-free specifications are based on the accessibility requirements of Section 3.8. of the National Building Code of Canada (NBC).Canadian Plumbing Design and Installation provides a solid foundation in the essential theory and the fundamental skills required to be a Red Seal-certified plumber. This textbook arose from the expressed need on the part of plumbing educators for a high-quality Canadian resource. A primary objective of the book is to provide learners with a working knowledge of the National Plumbing Code of Canada (NPC).The NPC is referenced throughout the textbook down to the subsection level. This is intended to familiarize learners with the organization of the code, as well as the rules governing plumbing system design, sizing, installation, and testing. It is recommended that learners have a copy of the NPC or their local plumbing code as a companion to the textbook.Several step-by-step practical examples are used to illustrate the impact of developed length, hydraulic load,and other factors on sizing drainage, vent, and water distribution piping. Each example refers to the appropriate NPC sizing tables. This gives learners an opportunity to access the tables in the code so they can follow along with the sizing procedures presented in the textbook.Canadian Plumbing Design and Installation was developed with the learner in mind. It assumes no prior knowledge of the subject matter. Concise introductions at the beginning of each chapter provide an overview of chapter content, and objectives focus learners on key outcomes.
