Though plumbing is an integral part of most building projects, it does tend to cause of a lot of difficulties. Whether they involve barriers to access, the need to drill into wall cavities, or the renovation of existing wet areas, these difficulties also tend to be both labour-intensive and expensive.
On top of that, conventional plumbing techniques place significant constraints on architects and designers. They limit the possible locations for bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries – and because of this – they force these professionals into choices they would otherwise avoid.
Now, with the introduction of several new technologies, there is hope that all these problems may become things of the past. Products like macerator pumps, grey water pumps, and lifting stations have the potential to introduce a new way of plumbing.
