Introduction:

Code Check Plumbing is an illustrated guide to the most common code questions in plumbing of single-family and two-family dwellings. This book emphasizes the basic safety principles that are at the heart of these codes.

The basic codes used in Code Check Plumbing are the 2006 International Residential Code® (2006 IRC) and the 2006 Uniform Plumbing Code (2006 UPC). These are the two most widely used residential plumbing codes in the United States.

For areas that use an older version of these codes, this book has a feature that highlights recent code changes and summarizes them on the inside back cover. Includes Top 50 Code Changes.

Before beginning a Building Project, we recommend you check with your local building department to determine which codes are used in your area.
