Description: 

Behind every wall, under every floor and in virtually every ceiling in a hospital you will find pipes. They are often forgotten because we rarely see them, but they could be described as the circulatory system of a building, delivering and disposing of vital fluids and gasses of this living and breathing environment.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Understand the magnitude of health care-associated infections (HAIs) & costs associated with them.
  • Understand how drainage designed for use in health care environments can help to mitigate the different types of contamination and corrosion which are deleterious to drainage systems and the patient care environment.
  • Compare different piping and drainage systems, their benefits & deficiencies.
  • Learn why not all piping systems are created equal, even those with similar materials of construction. Jointing methodology, ease of install and finish processes are vital in selecting the correct materials for your application.
  • Review how efficiently designed drainage impacts cleaning time and water use.
