Question 5: What is the impact of using oversized pipes in a plumbing system design?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It has no impact on the system's efficiency

It ensures a faster flow of water and fewer blockages

It decreases the maintenance requirements

It can lead to increased initial costs and unnecessary pressure losses

Question 6: How does pressure drop impact the performance of HVAC duct systems?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Excessive pressure drop reduces airflow and increases energy consumption

It increases airflow and improves system performance

It has no impact as long as the system is balanced

It improves energy efficiency by reducing the need for larger ducts
