STEP NO. 5 Pressure Drop per 100 feet of pipe in equivalent length
For Downfeed System
p=(P+0.43H-30)*100/L
where,
P=Height of water tank in psi or Pump Pressure installed at ro
H= Height of highest fixture from bottom of tank or(booster pu
L= Eqv. Length of pipe
Calculate main pipe size using pressure factor & total flow(found in step 1 against total no. of fixtures)
