• is connecting pipelines in the walls of a
building and underground. It is done for the
supply of water, provision of drainage
passages, and prevention from pipeline

sensitive technical nature and requires a
qualified architect.

components of the system. These symbols
are standardized and commonly used in
plumbing engineering, architectural
drawings, and technical documentation.
Use of plumbing symbols:
• Size mentioning.
• Time tracking by mentioning time on symbols.
• Adding various equipment on a map.
• Adding extra details.
• Entrance and exit of the supply connection.
• Show hot or cold water connections separately.
