<br /> SECTION 24-94 THEREOF, RELATING ~0 SOIL, Df~AIN, W~ST~A~D VENT PIPES GENERALLY"
<br />
<br /> The following letters ~ere read:
<br />
<br /> "After a thorough perusal of all available material on the use of copper for drainage
<br />purposes, I would like to make the following commen~s. The suggested ordinance a~endmen~ proposed to allow the
<br />use of cobber tube for drainage and purposely did not include ~ny ~ype designation since the copper industry is
<br />continuously ex~erimentinE to develop improvements for 6opper ~aterials which can be used with less cost and more
<br />efficiency to the consumer. If a type of tybing should be developed suitable for drainage purposes and approved
<br />by the copper industry, then we fe~l that it would nor be detrimental to the residents of the City to allow the u
<br />of these materials. A leading manufacturer of copper tubing outlines ~he-~types'and uses of copper tubing as fol-
<br />lows:
<br /> 'Drawn temper C~lYper tubes i~ nominal sizes'l~" to 8", furnished in 20 foot straight
<br /> lengths, are widely accepted for sanitary and storm' d~ainage lines in domestic and
<br /> commercial pltunbing systems, Their use is steadily increasing.
<br /> They are available in all standard wall thicknesses - Types ~, L, M and DWV
<br /> :
<br /> Type K ~ube.has the heavigst wal~ and is used for u~derground lines for all pur -
<br /> poses. .
<br /> Type L tube ~s recognized as the s~andard tube for interior plumbing and heating
<br /> lines. It is lighter in weight than Type K tube, and may be used for drainage
<br />
<br /> buried underground within the building.
<br /> Type M tube, which is lighter in weight than Type L Tube, has been incorporated in
<br /> many plumbing codes for soil, waste and vent lines.
<br />
<br /> Type DWV tube recently introduced ~o the plumbing field, has a thinner wall than
<br /> Type M tube, thus providing additional cost economy fera copper tube drainage
<br /> system. It is furnished in nominal sizes 1~" ro 6" and is used for soil, waste and
<br /> ven~ lines.
<br /> Neither Type M tube nor DWV tube ~hould be used for pressure water supply systems,
<br /> or for sanitary drainag~ lines below ground."
