Plumbing Design

Where possible, our house designs try to utilize a compact plumbing system, meaning reducing plumbing pipe lengths. This is done by utilizing back-to-back plumbing, stacked plumbing and creating plumbing “zones” within the house. This is beneficial in many ways:
 
 

• Lower installation cost
• Quicker hot water delivery at each faucet
• Energy / water bill savings from reduced length of travel in hot / cold water pipes
