PLUMBING

House Water Supply Plumbing Diagram

This residential plumbing schematic traces cold water from the building main through the primary shutoff. One branch feeds the water heater and the remaining cold-water branches feed the kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and shower. The heater outlet then supplies hot water to the same fixtures. Labels distinguish the 3/4-inch main from the 1/2-inch fixture branches. The drawing focuses on how the supply system connects rather than the physical path through walls and floors. It is useful for explaining a small remodel or organizing a discussion with a plumber. It does not replace a code-compliant permit drawing. Add fixture stops, backflow protection, drainage, venting, pipe materials, and actual routing as the project requires.
