Terrain FUZE Ventilation Drainage Pipework Systems The design of modern building drainage and ventilation systems has been developing since the 19th century. A minimum of 50mm of water is all that protects the occupants of a building from potentially harmful sewer gases and ‘particulates’. Therefore, a good design must consider the integrity of the trap seal and protect it from being lost. One way of doing this is to consider the air flow within the system, as this is the primary reason for trap seal breach. The flow of air within the drainage pipework system is equally as important as the flow...
