Just a few months ago, we shifted to our new house, and one day I was wondering how does apartment plumbing work. Each and everything is executed so well that you get the water with ease, but have you ever wondered how much effort is given to it? I did a bit of research and came to know briefly how does plumbing work in an apartment building. If you, too, are curious to know about it, read my answer.

  How does plumbing work in a house?

Most of us are aware of the inlet and outlet of water pipes but do not know their working process. Three things are actually focused on in the plumbing work and they are-

  Pressure- 

Pressure plays a vital role in the plumbing system. If there is no water pressure, the water will not flow through the tap or pipes with full force, and it will take hours to fill even a small bucket. To avoid such problems, booster pumps are used. It helps add pressure to move water from the storage tanks to the taps. So whether a building or apartment has water pressure or not is first ensured.

  Drainage-

The next important thing is to ensure that the apartment/property/building has a good drainage system. To have a proper drainage system, branch lines, vertical stacks, and horizontal underground lines (pipes) are used. The branch lines connect the vertical stacks to each unit and help in transporting the clean or wastewater to the respective vertical stack. One-pipe and two-pipes are used to build this drainage system. Without an expert plumber, it is not possible to build a proper drainage system.

  Control valves-

The drainage systems need to be controlled as well. If you do not have a tap, how will you get water? Hence, controlling valves are to be installed in the right places as well. The controlling valves will ensure that fresh and contaminated water does not get mixed and release water whenever needed. 

This answer should be enough to give you an idea about how the apartment plumbing work. You can consult with a plumber to know the working process in detail.
