A water riser diagram shows the pipe size diameter of each pipe connected to a fixture. The color-coded drawing additionally shows the size of the trunk line that extends through the building.
What is Better – A Home Run or a Daisy Chain System?
A home-run water supply system is one where a separate pipe feeds each fixture directly from a remote manifold. The manifold might be located in a mechanical room or a basement.
There are two distinct advantages to a home-run system. Chiefly there is a shutoff valve on the manifold controlling the water flow in each separate pipe. This valve allows you to shut off the water to just that one fixture while all other fixtures in the house still maintain full water flow.
The second advantage is fewer joints that might produce a leak. There are only two connection points. One is visible at the manifold and the second one is at the shutoff valve at or under the plumbing fixture.
A daisy chain water supply system works like the blood vessels in your body. A main cold water line starts to run through your home and smaller pipes branch off this main line to feed each fixture. A joint is created at each hidden branch behind a wall or ceiling, Each joint is a potential leak location.
Hot water lines are also daisy-chained in houses.
