Various terms and definitions related to plumbing, including the concept of 'rules of thumb' and different types of pipes such as variable arc nozzle, galvanized pipe ips, plastic irrigation pipe 24', pvc, pe, and nsf-pw. The rules of thumb include minimizing pressure changes, balancing flow, minimizing pipe sizes, and locating valves. Three tests for pipes are also mentioned: sustained pressure test, burst pressure test, and flattening test.
