IAPMO is a sponsor and administrating organization at the 2025 ANSI Innovation Summit this week.
Formerly World Standards Week, the ANSI Innovation Summit is an annual event that convenes the Institute’s members and private- and public-sector stakeholders from across the standards and conformity assessment communities to come together, learn from each other and showcase their important work.
At the summit’s showcase event, IAPMO will share two major initiatives where code provisions informed by research delivered direct economic and social impact:
1. Right-sizing plumbing pipes: Cost savings and water conservation built into code
IAPMO presents its breakthrough pipe-sizing formula, included in the Uniform Plumbing Code. The IAPMO Water Demand Calculator tool replaces a wasteful 90-year-old pipe-sizing method by accurately predicting the actual water use patterns in modern homes with water-efficient fixtures. Right-sizing pipes can reduce new single-family home construction costs by an average of more than $2,000, and up to $5,000, while reducing structural water waste and minimizing water stagnation to safeguard water quality.
2. IWSH: Community dignity through compliance
IAPMO will also showcase how codes and standards serve as vital tools for both equity and economic opportunity through the work of its public charity, the International Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Foundation. Highlighting a recent IWSH Community Plumbing Challenge project on the Navajo Nation, where IWSH replaced unsafe, outdated fixtures with code-compliant infrastructure, IAPMO is demonstrating how the application of standards is a crucial factor in affirming community dignity.
