Talk:Piping

Am I doing this right?
I just signed-up. I run Piping Design Central, which is an information site. Am I doing this right?

Edit: Most of my discussion list members are on email. Is it easy for them to contribute? I assume that I'm more web-savvy than most of them are. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pipingguy (talk • contribs) July 2, 2004 (UTC)


 * You did fine except for signing your name and for putting a subject on your comment (which I did for you). Next time, click on the +Tab at the top of this Discussion page or the Edit page. That will bring up a comment form with a space at the top for entering the subject of your comment (Capitalize only the first letter of the first word ... nothing else). Then write your question or comment or response. And always, always sign your name ... which is done by simply writing four tildes like this: ~ . That will automatically sign your name and list the date and time as well. Welcome! - mbeychok 02:22, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

It will depend on the direction of the flow of the liquid. but there are spring check valves MFR'D which could be used in both directions of flow.Joe sunbelt. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joe sunbelt (talk • contribs) 15:49, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Only Swing type check valve can't be in vertical position. So you can use waffer check valve for vertical positions.

mirror image design on process unit multiple trains
Is there any logical rule on why not mirror image process design units when several trains are part of the design? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.37.249.100 (talk) 22:17, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Piping vs. Plumbing
I am not a native speaker but the subject of both articles seems to overlap to a high degree.

Piping might be the more general term while plumbing mostly refers to buildings. But since large parts of the information is relevant to both articles it seems to make sense to maybe include Plumbing into Piping.

 * "Piping" is the union set of "plumbing" and "drainage". "Plumbing" is for water supply and NOT sewerage. "Drainage" is for sewerage. 202.75.86.136 (talk) 07:22, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
