 FOREWORD

This research deliberates the talks into the old tradition in plumbing fixtures and the

newest generation in the field of plumbing that comprise of nine components, in addition to

current work about plumbing fixtures.

The first section of this project's goal is to provide clear explanations, pictures, and kinds

regarding the specified category of toilets, lavatories, urinals, showers, drinking fountains,

flushing mechanisms, laundry tubs, and kitchen sinks.

 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

First and first, praise and thanks be to the All-Powerful God for his blessings that

continued throughout the study that was done to complete this research.

Sincere appreciation to our professor, Engr. My research supervisor Jose P. Labayna for

his leadership throughout this investigation.

My parents' love, support, and sacrifices in helping to pay for the costs of this research

have made me incredibly grateful.

Finally, my thanks go to all my research colleagues, my friends, my boyfriend,

and all people who supported me and help me to accomplish this research.
 INTRODUCTION

Fluids are transported by the plumbing system for a variety of purposes. Plumbing

systems are used in water distribution systems. Plumbing systems use tanks, pipelines, valves,

plumbing fittings, and other equipment to convey fluids. Plumbing is utilized for more than just

delivering drinkable water, disposing of waste, and heating and cooling spaces.

Since lead pipes were the first effective pipes used in the Roman era, the name comes

from the Latin word plumbum for lead. Domestic hot and cold water, sanitary sewage, vents,

storm drains, and particular wastes like grease are all included in plumbing systems (oxygen,

fuel-gas, vacuum, nitrogen).

Any device used to distribute or dispose of water or gas in a facility is referred to as a

plumbing fixture. Fixtures are often connected to the main water supply line or the main drain

line to flow water or drain wastewater, respectively. Showerheads and kitchen or bathroom

faucets are two examples of plumbing fixtures. Plumbing fittings are necessary to "fit" and link

the fixtures to their installation locations. Plumbing fittings, also referred to as adaptors, connect

the pipes and drains in dwellings.

The top plumbing industry trends for this year are greatly affected by technology in the

newest generation of the plumbing business, including the growing use of smart houses and

pipes that can detect leaks on their own. Customers are increasingly asking plumbers for

touchless fixtures, water recycling systems, and eco-friendly living products.
