4th year apprentice here about to test out.. Thank you for this video. Please produce more!

I appreciate you so much for this video. I am taking this course at trade tech currently. And no offense to my teacher but the way he explains things is hard for me to grasp. You explained so clearly and in layman terms. You taught me in these 50 min or so minutes more than my class that is from 6 to 9 lol. Please do one for drainage as well. And any other tricks and tips we need to know for a plumbing codes class.You truly dont know how much you have helped me!!Such a great teacher and i can tell a very experienced plumber!!!

i think what confuses some people (including myself for awhile) is the total demand fixture units and the individual fixture supply fixture units and how theyre summed up to calculate fixture gpm. because to the naked eye, you size a tub/shower as 4 fixture units on each line except it only counts as 4 total demand because the gpm off the fixture can only produce 4 fixture units of the mixture. so technically you size each line as if it would require 4 units, for hot, and 4 units for cold. but total demand is only 4 because only 4 units can come out of the fixture. the reason you want 4 units demand minimum for each line is because there are rare people that use only hot or only cold and that would meet the need of the demand of 4 fixture units for one line. but no matter what, the demand for a fixture will never exceed its total gpm rate. so when youre sizing total demand you will never exceed the initial supply demand you sized the house for. when you branch off for the water heater, it is very tricky not to add an excessive amount of fixture unit counts to your demand but be careful because you are only sizing the branch lines to handle that extra demand if only one line is being turned on, and not adding the amount to the fixture count initial supply demand. hope that makes sense

very helpful video!
