NOTES: 
Allowances are for streamlined soldered �ttings and recessed threaded �ttings. 
For threaded �ttings, double the allowances shown in the table. 
The equivalent lengths presented above are based upon a C factor of 150 in the Hazen-Williams friction loss
formula. The lengths shown are rounded to the nearest half foot.
