In distribution pipes, drain valves are provided at lower point
Solution
A drain valve is a kind of valve which is used to drain out the excess water from the pipe.
- In the distribution pipes some dead ends are there, in such a case water accumulated in dead end pipes needs to be drained off at some interval otherwise it can contaminate the fresh water. So Drain valves are required at the end of pipes.
- To drain off all accumulated water in pipes, the drain valve should be located at the lower point of the pipes. Hence, in distribution pipes, drain valves are provided at lower point.
