Table of Pipe Sizing

This document provides a table that converts gallons per minute (GPM) flow rates to fixture units for both cold and hot water systems. It specifies the recommended pipe diameter for various pressure loss ranges between 4-6 fixture units and 10-15 fixture units. Pipe diameter increases from 3/8 to 5 inches as fixture units increase from 1 to over 1000.
