Hi. I need to figure out what size pipe I should us to run water from one end of the building to another.
Here are the details. Service comes in to the building from and underground 2" PVC pipe at 44 psi. (Gravity fed from a cistern) I will run the pipe up to the interior wall to the roofline, then suspend it from the steel purlins and run it 130 feet to a small commercial kitchen and two public bathrooms. I don't mind erring on oversizing it but don't want to be ridiculous about it. My number one concern is I don't want a momentary loss of pressure when some one flushes a toilet or turns on water at a sink.
