For SI units: 1 inch = 25 mm

Notes:

1 Indirect waste receptors shall be sized based on the total drainage capacity of the fixtures that drain therein to, in accordance with UPC Table 702.2(b).

2 Provide a 2-inch (50 mm) miniraura drain.

3 For refrigerators, coffee urns, water stations, and similar low demands.

4 For commercial sinks, dishwashers, and similar moderate or heavy demands.

5 Buildings having a clothes-washing area with clothes washers in a battery of three or more clothes washers shall be rated at 6-fixture units each for purposes of sizing common horizontal and vertical drainage piping.

6 Trap sizes shall not be increased to the point where the fixture discharge is capable of being inadequate to maintain their self-scouring properties.

7 Assembly [See Minnesota Rules, chapter 1305, International Building Code].
