Project: GRE - PLUMBING FOR NEW APT COMPLEX - OVWSD
Alternate Materials, Methods or Modifications Request
For the City of Edmonds Project referenced above, the Plumbing Design was modified (Per 2015
UPC Section 301.3) to implement the use of the UPC Appendix C Alternate Plumbing Systems,
which allows Reduced Water & Drainage units per stacked bathroom groups (Water Supply
Table C 303.1(1) & Drainage Fixture Table 303.1(2)), resulting in plumbing systems that are as
Efficient and Compliant as required by Code and with a Greener end -design due in large to the
reduction of materials.
All other fixtures plumbing design follow guidelines in UPC Chapter 6 & 7, Clothes Washers,
Kitchen Sinks and Amenity areas.
The use of the Sizing Charts in the UPC Appendix C also will minimize the possible difficulties of
construction in contrast to using chapters 6 & 7 entirely, due to the large size of this residential
project.
Based on this statement, the Alternate Methods or Modifications are requested.
We appreciate your understanding,
Sincerely,
Edmonds 99 Plumbing Team.
