What is the maximum length of a water pipe without joint?

My water pipe run across my dinning area and there are 4 joints.. distance of each joint is less than 1 metre...

My contractor suggest box up so that it will cover the water pipe..

now the problem is not i want to box up anot.. now the problem is why is there soo many joint??? Why can't there be only 1 water pipe without joint to run across my dinning area...

*angree*

Understand your anger.. definitely can be longer than 1m... it's ridiculous to have 1m joints throughout... my thoughts is "more joints, more issues"...

Suggest u pose the question to your contractor and see what he says... it's amazing to hear some of the things they say... no matter how illogical it may be... they say it without emotion whether true or not true.

My case was that I wanted to keep the original pipes and everything ok until one day my contractor tells me pipe dunno why leak.. and end up we were more or less forced to change.

Apologies if i sounded very negative on contractors.. so far have been dealing with less than acceptable ones... sianz..

Hi,

Standard water pipe one length is 5.9m, however, with this length is not able to transport in most vehicle. Normally the contractors will use 2.8m (half of full length) then they are able to transport in their vehicle.

hahahaa...my guess will be that the contractor make use of whatever leftover lengths he has......

i complain liao and they change it for me.. no more short short 1 metre water pipe.. =>
