Plumbing questions with answers on the New York city rules and regulations, and useful information for plumbers, architects, estimators, masters, inspectors, draftsmen

Preface

The following pages have been prepared in response to many requests for interpretations of the plumbing code.

Realizing the importance of strict compliance with sanitary regulations, the author has endeavored to set forth all information essential to such compliance in a form instructive and convenient.

Many years of effort and experiment have gone into building the Plumbing Code of New York City to its high level of standards, until to-day it stands as a model for sanitary rules and regulations not excelled in any city in the world.
