The 2003 Uniform Plumbing Code, the world's
most widely referenced model plumbing code!
Contractors, installers, building officials, engineers, and inspectors
nationwide reference the Uniform Plumbing Code. Developed through
a consensus-based code development process, today’s ANSI-accredited
edition is up-to-date with new technology and industry practices.
The Uniform Plumbing Code™ (UPC™) helps manufacturers, contractors,
installers, and inspectors provide safe and sanitary plumbing systems
using the latest technologies and innovations. The UPC is compatible
with all model building codes. The UPC provides minimum standards
and requirements to safeguard life or limb, health, property and
public welfare by regulating and controlling the design, construction,
installation, quality of materials, location, operation and maintenance
or use of plumbing systems.
You’ll find requirements addressing general work in most types
of occupancies, from one- and two-family dwellings to medical health
care facilities to commercial buildings. In-depth chapters cover
all major topics such as:
- Plumbing fixtures and fixture fittings
- Water supply and distribution
- Indirect waste systems
- Traps and interceptors
Appendixes guide you through complex tasks. Approx. 379 pp.
