In a water flowing pipeline, water pressure and pipe size are dependent on each other. If the diameter of a pipe decreases, the pressure in the pipe will automatically rise. As per the scientific approach, pressure can be reduced by reducing the area of conveyance. In the narrower pipe, the velocity of the water can be high, and pressure can be higher.
If the amount of water is passing through a pipe and the pipe diameter reduces, then the velocity of the water will increase, the pressure decreases. The mass flow remains consistent for the time till the air density remains consistent.
Grab your thinking caps for this, the water will flow slowly in the pipe with a bigger diameter, but the pressure will increase. According to Bernoulli’s law (paraphrased), as the speed of a fluid increases, the force of that liquid decreases.
If you force a specific amount of water through a more petite pipe size, water flow must increase for it to pass through the smaller pipe. Bernoulli’s principle says that it will eventually decrease the water pressure. By suddenly forcing a given amount of water through a narrow passage, you can create enough of a pressure decrease that it creates suction. It is now using a smaller pipe would not increase the pressure – it would decrease it!
Various types of pipe fittings accessories are used in plumbing systems all over Pakistan. Different plastic pipe sizes are made up of other materials, mainly PVC and PPRC.
PPRC pipe is an indispensable solution for today’s indoor hot and cold water piping system due to its numerous benefits, including:
PPRC pipes are perfect for various applications in transmitting pressurized cold or hot water due to their thermal, pressure, and chemical resistance.

PVC pipes are the most common ones you will run into when it comes to the plumbing system. PVC pipes are used in various piping applications, from hygienic transportation of drinking water over drainage solutions to advanced fire-sprinkler systems. PVC can also be connected to a hose pipe water pressure booster to increase your hose’s power. It can also be used to improve your home water pressure and turn it up if it is too low.
This popularity owes to a unique combination of characteristics and long service life. It is a product of modern technology that offers durable and reliable services to the drainage system due to its following properties:
