When you need plumbing services for your commercial space, it’s important to call a plumber that specializes in commercial plumbing services rather than solely residential services because the two are very different. Here at Top Notch Plumbing Services Inc., we offer both residential and commercial plumbing services. Here are a few ways that a commercial plumbing installation is different from a residential plumbing installation.
- More complex: A commercial plumbing installation is often more complex than a residential plumbing installation because commercial spaces usually require different piping and more intricate parts to account for higher foot traffic and a larger building.
- Building codes and regulations: Commercial buildings usually have specific codes and regulations that must be followed for commercial plumbing installations. This can help ensure they are up to specific health and safety standards for public use. Residential buildings will have certain codes and regulations regarding plumbing installations as well, but they are typically not as strict since they are only for private use.
- Designed for heavy use: Commercial plumbing is typically used more frequently than residential. This requires more heavy-duty plumbing fixtures and materials that are designed for lasting durability to withstand the frequent usage. The commercial plumbing installation may also involve installing fixtures that are designed for minimal spread of germs with no-touch systems, such as automatic flushing toilets or automatic sinks, hand dryers, and soap dispensers.
