The Differences Between Business and Home Plumbing Systems

Plumbing systems are not all the same, and the issues with your system may call for a plumber with unique experience with the systems used on a business property. The commercial plumbers out of our Fayetteville office understand what it takes to handle these unique challenges. 

There are many reasons commercial plumbing is often distinct from residential plumbing, these include: 

Consumption Patterns

In a commercial setting, water is utilized by a wide range of individuals, from employees to clients and visitors. Whether it's using restroom facilities or needing a sip of water, the sheer volume of water usage extends beyond just an increased utility bill or the occasional plumbing service call. Commercial settings often require pipes that are more robust and of a higher grade to meet these demands.

System Complexity

The heightened level of water consumption in businesses leads to more elaborate plumbing networks. This often results in more intricate pipe layouts than residential homes. Furthermore, businesses spread across multiple levels may face even more complex plumbing challenges, needing a maze of pipes to supply water throughout the building. 

Leak Detection

Identifying leaks in a commercial facility is considerably more challenging than in a home due to the extensive network of potential leak points. A sudden spike in the water bill could stem from numerous sources, making the leak harder to pinpoint and potentially leading to greater financial losses if left unresolved.

Regulatory Compliance

Business establishments are governed by strict health and safety codes, especially concerning water supply cleanliness. Our commercial plumbers are well-versed in the local municipal codes and requirements throughout Cumberland County.
