2012 Building Code: Technical Changes Part 7 Plumbing

2012 Building Code Part 7- Plumbing There have been numerous changes to Part 7 Majority of changes are simple changes ie. renumbered, relocated, deleted, etc.

Consultations Two rounds of public consultations Fall of 2010 Spring 2011 Advisory technical committees met after each round

Process Committee weighs their decision on, Policy direction provide by MMAH Results from relevant consultations Must be technically viable and consistent with Code objectives The impact of the proposed change on the construction and operating costs of building Stakeholder impacts; and Enforceability Recommendations from technical committees are developed through a consensus process. MMAH will make the final decision based on the public response, policy impact, and technical committees recommendation when drafting the Building Code Changes.

Main Themes Supporting the economy by promoting innovation, reducing costs, increasing design flexibility and increasing harmonization with National Codes Enhancing energy and water conservation, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, adapting to climate change, protecting the environment; and Protecting public health and safety

Outline Definitions Materials Drainage Venting Water piping

Definitions Rainwater Storm drainage piping Sanitary sewage Sewer lateral extension

Rainwater NEW Rainwater means storm sewage runoff that is collected from a roof or the ground, but not from accessible patios and driveways.

Sanitary Sewage Sanitary sewage means, (a) liquid or water borne waste, (i) of industrial or commercial origin, or (ii) of domestic origin, including human body waste, toilet or other bathroom waste, and shower, tub, culinary, sink and laundry waste, or (b) liquid or water borne waste discharged from a public pool to a drain.

Sewer Lateral Extension NEW Sewer lateral extension means an extension of a public sewer that connects to a storm building sewer or sanitary building sewer 1.5 m beyond the property line and that serves not more than one property.

Storm Drainage Pipe Storm drainage pipe means all the connected piping that conveys storm sewage to a place of disposal and includes the storm building drain, storm building sewer, rain water leader, catch basin and area drain installed to collect water from the property and the piping that drains water from a swimming pool, other than a public pool, or from water cooled air-conditioning equipment, but does not include; (a) a subsoil drainage pipe, or (b) a private sewage treatment and disposal facility designed for the treatment or retention of storm sewage prior to discharge to the natural environment

Materials

Water Distribution Systems 7.1.5.3. (2)  Storm sewage or greywater that is free of solids and treated to conform to Article 7.7.4.1. is permitted to be used as a water supply for, (a) water closets, (b) urinals, (c) sub-surface irrigation, or (d) the priming of traps.

NEW 7.1.5.3 new sentence (3) (3)  Rainwater that is free of solids and treated to conform to Article 7.7.4.1. is permitted to be used as a water supply for, (a) clothes washers, (b) laundry trays, (c) mop sinks, (d) bedpan washers, (e) water closets, (f) urinals, (g) hose bibbs, (h) sub-surface irrigation, or (i) the priming of traps. (4)  Piping conveying the non-potable water described in Sentence (2) shall be installed in conformance with Section 7.7. Sentence (4) used to be (3) in previous code

Up-dated 7.1.5.5. (1) Private water supply pipes shall be designed and installed according to MOE PIBS 6881e, “Design Guidelines for Drinking-Water Systems”. (2) Private sewers shall be designed and installed according to MOE PIBS 6879, “Design Guidelines for Sewage Works”. Both are readily available on-line and it should be emphasized that these documents contain design guidelines. Legislation, including legislated standards and regulations, takes precedence over the Design Guidelines and must be followed.

Traps 7.2.3.1. (3) Except for a floor-mounted service sink, every trap that serves a lavatory, a sink or a laundry tray shall, (a) be provided with a cleanout plug of a minimum ¾ in. size located at the lowest point of the trap and of the same material as the trap, except that a cast iron trap shall be provided with a brass cleanout plug, (b) be designed so that the trap dip can be completely removed for cleaning purposes, or (c) be provided with a cleanout installed above the floor as close as practical downstream of the trap when the trap is, (i) installed below the floor, and (ii) not readily accessible for cleaning as required by Clause (a).

Trap installed below floor

Grease Interceptors Previously there were no standards 7.2.3.2. (3) Where a grease interceptor is required by Sentence 7.4.4.3.(1), the interceptor shall conform to, (a) CAN/CSA-B481.1, “Testing and Rating of Grease Interceptors Using Lard”, or (b) CAN/CSA-B481.2, “Testing and Rating of Grease Interceptors Using Oil”. Previously there were no standards

Polyethylene Water Pipe 7.2.5.5. (1) Polyethylene water pipe, tubing and fittings shall be certified to, and have a pressure rating meeting the requirements of, Series 160 or a higher series of CAN/CSA-B137.1, “Polyethylene (PE) Pipe, Tubing and Fittings for Cold Water Pressure Services Previously the code only stated Series 160

New Sentence 7.2.10.7.(1) Linings and coatings of domestic water tanks that come into contact with potable water shall be certified to NSF/ANSI 61, “Drinking Water System Components - Health Effects”. Concerns are related to leaching of chemicals in the storage tanks and therefore all linings and coatings of tanks must be certified.

7.2.10.14. Vent Pipe Flashing (1) Flashing fabricated on site for vent pipes shall be fabricated from, (a) copper sheet at least 0.33 mm thick, (b) aluminum sheet at least 0.48 mm thick, (was .61) (c) alloyed zinc sheet at least 0.35 mm thick, (d) lead sheet at least 1.73 mm thick, (was 2.16) (e) galvanized steel sheet at least 0.33 mm thick, or (was .41) (f) polychloroprene (neoprene) at least 2.89 mm thick.

New Article 7.2.10.17. Drinking Water Treatment Systems (1) A drinking water treatment system or device shall be certified to CAN/CSA-B483.1, “Drinking Water Treatment Systems”. Drinking water treatment systems covered by this Standard are intended to be used for the reduction or inactivation of harmful substances that can be present in drinking water Examples Reverse osmosis Ultra violet lights Water softeners' Etc .

New Article 7.3.3.12. Copper Joints Used Underground (1) Except as provided in Sentence (2), joints in copper tubes installed underground shall be, (a) made with either flared or compression fittings, or (b) brazed using a brazing alloy within the American Welding Society’s AWS-BCuP range. (2) Compression fittings shall not be used underground under a building.

New Sentence 7.3.6.1.(6) A sewer lateral extension need not be tested and inspected if the sewer lateral extension was constructed, tested and inspected at the time of the installation of the public sewer.

Suds Pressure Zone 7.4.2.1. (4) Where a change in direction of more than 45° occurs in a soil or waste pipe that serves more than one clothes washer, and in which pressure zones are created by detergent suds, no other soil or waste pipe shall be connected to it within a length less than, (a) 40 times the size of the soil or waste pipe or 2.44 m maximum vertical, whichever is less, before the change in direction, and (b) 10 times the size of the nominally horizontal soil or waste pipe after the change in direction.

(a) 40 times the size of the soil or waste pipe or 2 (a) 40 times the size of the soil or waste pipe or 2.44 m maximum vertical, whichever is less, before the change in direction, and (b) 10 times the size of the nominally horizontal soil or waste pipe after the change in direction.

New Sentence 5) Where a vent pipe is connected into a suds pressure zone referred to in Sentence (4), no other vent pipe shall be connected to that vent pipe within the height of the suds pressure zone. Suds may backup into other vents and prohibit the vents from working properly if tied into vents serving clothes washers

Rainwater Tanks 7.4.2.2. Connection of Overflows from Rainwater Tanks Previously; 7.4.2.2.(1) An overflow from a rainwater tank shall not be directly connected to a storm drainage system. 7.4.2.2. Connection of Overflows from Rainwater Tanks (1) Where an overflow from a rainwater tank is connected to a storm drainage system, it shall be connected by, (a) an air break, or (b) a backwater valve installed on the storm drainage pipe before the connection to the storm building drain. Sometimes indirect connection may not be possible, therefore, the proposed wordings will offer alternative means of direct connections with proper protection.

Backwater Valves 7.4.6.4. 3) Except as provided in Sentences (4) and (5), where a building drain or a branch may be subject to backflow, (a) a backwater valve shall be installed on every fixture drain connected to it when the fixture is located below the level of the adjoining street, or (b) a backwater valve shall be installed to protect fixtures which are below the upstream sanitary manhole cover when a residential building is served by a public sanitary sewer The current Code does not require a backwater valve to be installed on any fixture below the upstream sanitary manhole cover when a home is serviced by a public or private sanitary sewer system. The current proposal will minimize sewage backup.

Kitchen Sink Cleanout 7.4.7.1. revised (10) A cleanout shall be installed on a trap arm serving a kitchen sink as close as practical to the trap outlet and shall be readily accessible. Cleaning with the use of a trap dip may damage to the threads of a union trap and trap dip. To accommodate for cleaning purposes, a cleanout installed on the fixture drain serving a kitchen sink, as close as possible to the trap outlet prevents possible damage to the threads of a union trap and trap dip.

Water Closets New Sentence 7.4.9.2. (5)  No vertical leg of the drainage pipe from a water closet or other fixture that has an integral siphonic flushing action shall exceed 1 000 mm This was introduced to prevent siphonic action. (self siphonage)

Maximum vertical drop from water closet flange not to exceed 1000mm

Clothes washer Table 7.4.9.3. revised Clothes washer (a) domestic & (b) commercial 2 in. trap Due to changes in clothes washer designs and prevalence of front-loading machines with faster pump capacities new installations are overflowing and there is a need to upgrade the standpipe and trap dimensions. Table has been revised to indicate a 2-inch trap for both domestic and commercial clothes washers.

Wet Venting 7.5.2.1.(1) (g) the hydraulic load of separately vented fixtures that drain into the wet vent are not included when sizing the continuous vent that serves the wet vent,

Separately Vented

Wet Venting 7.5.2.1. (1) (i) where a wet vent extends through more than 1 storey, there is not more than one nominally horizontal offset in the wet vent, and, (i) the offset does not exceed 1 200 mm for pipes 2 in. or less in size, or (ii) the offset does not exceed 2 500 mm for pipes larger than 2 in. in size, Due to revisions to the 2006 venting requirements, a discrepancy had been introduced by this wording. The limit on nominally horizontal offset only applies to a wet vent which is extended through more than one storey. (k) the highest fixture is connected to a vertical portion of the wet vent, upstream of any other fixtures, in the form of a continuous vent, It also did not indicate the highest fixture must discharge into the wet vent that is connected into a continuous vent.

Vent Stacks 7.5.4.2. OLD (1)  Except as provided in Sentence (2), every soil or waste stack greater than 4 storeys in height shall have a vent stack. New (1)  Except as provided in Sentence (2), every soil or waste stack draining fixtures from more than 4 storeys shall have a vent stack. The requirement has been edited to clarify intent. The word greater has been replaced by draining fixtures from more and the words in height have been deleted. Without this clarification, a stack that physically passes through more than 4 storeys would require a vent stack even though it might only be serving the 5th storey.

If only the top three floors were discharging into the soil stack, then no vent stack would be required.

Length of Trap Arm T.7.5.6.3. Revise Table to harmonize with NPC. Size of trap served, in Maximum Trap Arm, m Minimum Slope 1 ¼ 1.5 1 in 50 1 1/2 1.8 was 1.5 2 2.4 was 1.5 3 3.6 was 1.8 4 4.9 was 3 9.8 new 1 in 100

Protection from Backflow No change here. Just relocated to Reserved article 7.6.2.3.   (1)  Except as provided in Sentence (3) and Articles 7.6.2.4. to 7.6.2.6., where a backflow preventer is required by this Subsection, the backflow preventer shall be selected, installed and tested in conformance with CSA B64.10, “Selection and Installation of Backflow Preventers”. (2)  Backflow preventers shall be provided in conformance with Sentence 7.2.10.10.(1). (3)  Tank type water closet valves shall be provided with a back - siphonage preventer in conformance with Sentence 7.2.10.10.(2). In the 2006 Code, these sentences were embodied in 7.6.2.4. Backflow from Fire Protection Systems.

Premise Isolation Relocated Exist. And modified to reserved 7.6.2.6.  Premise Isolation (1)  Buildings or facilities, where a moderate hazard or severe hazard may be caused by backflow, shall be provided with premise isolation of the potable water system by the installation of a backflow preventer selected in accordance with Clauses 5.3.4.2.(b) and (c) of CSA B64.10, “Selection and Installation of Backflow Preventers”. (2)  Buildings of residential occupancy within the scope of Part 9 are not required to be isolated unless they have access to an auxiliary water supply. (3)  Except as provided in Sentence (1), where no direct connection exists between the auxiliary water supply and the potable water system, premise isolation shall be provided by a dual check valve backflow preventer conforming to CAN/CSA-B64.6, “Dual Check Valve Backflow Preventers (DuC)”.

Potable Water 7.6.3.1.(2) relocated from 7.6.6.1.(1) (2)  A potable water system shall be designed, constructed and installed to conform to good engineering practice appropriate to the circumstances, such as that described in the ASHRAE Handbooks and ASPE Data Books.

Revise Existing Subsections Updated F.U. for water-conserving fixtures, appliances and devices in the referenced tables (next slides) Three options in Water pipe sizing method A. Detailed engineering analysis method B. Average pressure loss method C. Simplified method To fully understand how to size water piping correctly, you will need to take a course.
