provisions that not unnecessarily increase construction costs; provisions that not restrict the use of new materials, products or methods of construction; and provisions that not give preferential treatment to particular types or classes of materials, products or methods of construction Adoption The International Plumbing Code is available for adoption and use by jurisdictions internationally Its use w i t h a governmental jurisdiction is intended to be accomplished through adoption by reference in accordance with proceedings establishing the jurisdiction's laws At the time of adoption,jurisdictions should insert the appropriate information in provisions requiring specific local information, such as the name of the adoptingjurisdiction These locations are shown in bracketed words in small capital letters in the code and in the sample ordinance The sample adoption ordinance on page v addresses several key elements of a code adoption ordinance, including the information required for insertion into the code text Maintenance The International Plumbing Code is kept up to date through the review of proposed changes subrnittedby code enforcing officials, industry representatives, design professionals and other interested parties Proposed changes are carefully considered through an open code development process in which all interested and affected parties may participate The contents of this work are subject to change both through the Code Development Cycles and the governmental body that enacts the code into law For more information regarding the code development process, contact the Code and Standard Development Department of the International Code Council 2003 INTERNATIONAL PLUMBING CODE@ 111 While the development procedure of the International Plumbing Code assures the highest degree of care, ICC and the founding members of ICC-BOCA, ICBO, SBCCI-their members and those participating in the development ofthis code not accept any liability resulting from compliance or noncompliance with the provisions because ICC and its founding members not have the power or authority to police or enforce compliance with the contents of this code Only the governmental body that enacts the code into law has such authority Letter Designations in Front of Section Numbers In each code development cycle, proposed changes to this code are considered at the Code Development Hearing by the International Plumbing Code Development Committee, whose action constitutes a recommendation to the voting membership for final action on the proposed change Proposed changes to a code section whose number begins with a letter in brackets are consideredby a different code development committee For instance, proposed changes to code sections which have the letter [B] in front (for example, [B]309.2), are considered by the International Building Code Development Committee at the Code Development Hearing Where this designation is applicable to the entire content of a main section of the code, the designation appears at the main section number and title and is not repeated at every subsection in that section The content of sections in this code which begin with a letter designation are maintained by another code developmentcom- mittee in accordance with the following: PI= International Building Code Development Committee; [El = International Energy Conservation Code Development Committee; [EB] = International Existing Building Code Developmeilt Committee; [F] = International Fire Code Development Committee Marginal Markings Solid vertical lines in the margins within the body of the code indicate a technical change from the requirements of the 2000 edition Deletion indicators (+) are provided in the margin where a paragraph or item has been deleted 2003 INTERNATIONAL PLUMBING CODE@ ORDINANCE The International Codes are designed and promulgated to be adopted by reference by ordinance Jurisdictions wishing to adopt the 2003 International Plumbing Code as an enforceable regulation governing plumbing systems should ensure that certain factual information is included in the adopting ordinance at the time adoption is being considered by the appropriate governmental body The following sample adoption ordinance addresses several key elements of a code adoption ordinance, including the information required for insertion into the code text SAMPLE ORDINANCE FOR ADOPTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL PLUMBING CODE ORDINANCE NO An ordinance of the [JURISDICTION] adopting the 2003 edition of the International Plumbin Code, regulating and governing the design, construction, quality of materials, erection, installation, alteration, repair, location, refocation, replacement, addition to, use or maintenance of plumbing systems in the [JURISDICTION];

SYSTEM SECTION E201 SELECTION OF PIPE SIZE E 201.1 Size of water-service mains, branch mains and risers The minimum size water service pipe shall be 3/4inch (19.1 rnrn) The size of water service mains, branch mains and risers shall be determined according to water supply demand [gpm (Llm)], available water pressure [psi (kPa)] and friction loss due to the water meter and developed length of pipe [feet (m)], including equivalent length of fittings The size of each water distribution system shall be determined according to the procedure outlined in this section or by other design methods conforming to acceptable engineering practice and approved by the code official: Supply load in the building water-distribution system shall be determined by total load on the pipe being sized, in terms of water-supply futture units (w.s.f.u.), as shown in Table E103.3(2) For fixtures not listed, choose a w.s.f.u value of a fixture with similar flow characteristics Obtain the minimum daily static service pressure [psi (kPa)] available (as determined by the local water authority) at the water meter or other source of supply at the installation location Adjust this minimum daily static pressure [psi (kPa)] for the following conditions: To determine the size of water service pipe, meter and main distribution pipe to the building using the appropriate table, follow down the selected "maximum developed length" column to a fixture unit equal to, or greater than the total installation demand calculated by using the "combined" water supply fixture unit column of Table E20 1.1 Read the water service pipe and meter sizes in the first left-hand column and the main distribution pipe to the building in the second left-hand column on the same row To determine the size of each water distribution pipe, start at the most remote outlet on each branch(either hot or cold branch) and, working back toward the main distribution pipe to the building, add up the water supply fixture unit demand passing through each segment of the distribution system using the related hot or cold column of Table E201.1 Knowing demand, the size of each segment shall be read from the second left-hand column of the same table and maximum developed length column selected in Steps and 2, under the same or next smaller size meter row In no case does the size of any branch or main need to be larger that the size of the main distribution pipe to the building established in Step 2.1 Determine the difference in elevation between the source of supply and the highest water supply outlet Where the hlghest water supply outlet is located above the source of supply, deduct 0.5 psi (3.4 kPa) for each foot (0.3 m) of difference in elevation Where the highest water supply outlet is located below the source of supply, add 0.5 psi (3.4 kPa) for each foot (0.3 m) of difference in elevation 2.2 Where a water pressure reducing valve is installed in the water distribution system, the minimum daily static water pressure available is 80 percent of the minimum daily static water pressure at the source of supply o r the s et pressure downstream o f t he pressure reducing valve, whichever is smaller 2.3 Deduct all pressure losses due to special equipment such as a backflow preventer, water filter and water softener Pressure loss data for each piece of equipment shall be obtained through the manufacturer of such devices 2.4 Deduct the pressure in excess of psi (55 kPa) due to installation of the special plumbing fixture, such as temperature controlled shower and flushometer tank water closet Using the resulting minimum available pressure, find the corresponding pressure range in Table E20 1.1 The maximum developed length for water piping is the actual length of pipe between the source of supply and the most remote fixture, including either hot (through the water heater) or cold water branches multiplied by a factor of 1.2 to compensate for pressure loss through fittings Select the appropriate column in Table E201.1 equal to or greater than the calculated maximum developed length 2003 INTERNATIONAL PLUMBING CODE@ SIZING OF WATER PIPING SYSTEM TABLE E201.1 MINIMUM SIZE
