What is Plumbing Drainage?

As you know, building sewage piping, unlike building water piping, has many sections, and failure to install each section can cause problems in the entire sewer system.

An equipped building sewer system includes the following parts:

Sewage water pipe:
Sewage pipe in the sewage system, as its name implies, is responsible for directing waste to wells outside the building. The design of this pipe is installed in buildings from top to bottom, and the reason for this is that in the direction of the ground, the force of gravity comes with the help of sewer pipes to be useful for faster transportation of sewer materials.
Vent or vent pipes:
These pipes are mainly used to create ventilation next to the sewer pipes in the building, and the second task of these pipes is to help drain and move sewage materials by producing currents and air pressure in the sewer pipes. The shape of the ventilation air pipe is along the building and unlike the riser sewer pipes, the vent pipes are ascending.
The main cause of unpleasant ventilation in the building's sewage system is mostly due to incorrect installation of vent pipes.
Siphon:
The siphon is also a line section in the sewer system. It is necessary to use a siphon under the sink, in the bathroom and toilet to prevent the drain pipe from drying out.
Due to the bottleneck shape, siphons always retain some water to prevent the sewer pipe from drying out.
The benefit of this is that insects and unpleasant odors can no longer enter the building.
Once you are familiar with the components of the sewer system in the building, it is time to review the methods of sewer piping in the building. To find the best method of sewer piping in the building, we must first review the common methods of sewer system piping.

Pros

Affordable
The lightweight properties of PVC not only decrease the labor necessary for installation, but they also decrease the cost of transporting the material.
Resistant to high water pressure
PVC doesn’t easily bend, but the pipe does have some flexible properties that allow it to withstand the constant influx of high water pressure.
Resistant to blockages
The smooth inner lining of PVC speeds up the draining process, protecting it against sediment buildup and blockages.

Cons

Toxicity concerns
Despite meeting the standards for drinkable water by the American National Standards Institute, the administrator and coordinator of the U.S. private sector voluntary standardization system, there are concerns over the potential for PVC pipes to leach chemicals into drinking water, exposing people to high levels of polyvinyl chloride, potentially causing respiratory and reproductive issues.
Limited size options
PVC piping has limited sizing options that can render the piping ineffective within tight spaces.
Warping
Like many types of plastic, PVC isn’t capable of withstanding hot water and will warp as a result.
