Pipe Sizing Principles

Understanding proper pipe sizing ensures optimal system performance.

  • Flow Velocity Ideal range: 4-8 ft/sec for most applications.
  • Pressure Loss Should not exceed 3 psi per 100 ft.
  • Pipe Material Affects flow characteristics and durability.
  • System Demand Determines required pipe capacity.

Installation Tips

Support

Proper hangers and spacing required.

Expansion

Allow for thermal movement.

Fittings

Account for additional pressure loss.

Testing

Pressure test before use.
