Bathroom Plumbing Layout
Need to map out your bathroom’s plumbing system quickly and accurately? ArcSite makes it simple to design layouts for sinks, toilets, bathtubs, and showers—ensuring every connection flows smoothly from manifold to fixture.
Why Use a Bathroom Plumbing Layout?
This diagram helps plumbers plan installations, contractors prepare permit drawings, and homeowners understand how water reaches each fixture. It also aids designers and builders in aligning plumbing with the overall floor plan.
Two Common Methods for Running Plumbing Lines
Bathroom plumbing systems are typically laid out using either branch line systems or home-run systems. You can expand this diagram to help illustrate to your team or client:
- Branch Line Method: Fixtures share water supply lines that “branch off” a main pipe—efficient but harder to isolate for repairs.
- Home-Run Method: Each fixture has its own dedicated line from the main manifold—ideal for new builds and easy maintenance.
