Latin word for lead is plumbum, from which we derive the words plumber and plumbing.
Plumbing refers to the specific water and sewage devices and systems of a building, while water and sewage systems refer to the systems that supply a group of buildings or geographic area, such as a city.

Some of the best preserved evidence of ancient plumbing, however, was found in the excavations of Pompeii and Herculaneum. In 79 AD, a volcano known as Mount Vesuvius experienced a massive eruption, burying the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum under a thick layer of lava and ash.

The Romans were not the only people in the ancient world to have excellent plumbing by the standards of the day. King Minos of Crete has a primitive flushing water closet in 1700 BC. The kings of Crete were well known for their extravagant baths with hot and cold running water.

Total R value = 22.27Inside Air Film 0.68
Temperature at surface of inside wall.720 - ((.68 / 22.27) x 760)) = 69.680

Remember …..570 = Saturation Temperature!
If there is any moisture in the wall, where will
it condense and where would it freeze?
![Page 17: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Inside temp. 720 out design temp. -40
720 – (-40) = 760
Total R value = 22.27so at 570 where is that in relationship to the water vapor condensing within the wall?
720 - (X / 22.27) x 760) = 570
![Page 18: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
720 - (X / 22.27) x 760) = 570
(720 – 570) = (X/22.27 x 760)
150 = (X/22.27 x 760) 150 / 760 = X/22.27.1970 = X/22.27 X = 4.39
![Page 19: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
X = 4.39 What is 4.39?
Batt insulation is R-19 @5.5” then k = 3.45 per inchSo 4.39 is about 1 -1/4” into the batt insulation and that is where the
temperature is 570.
4.39
![Page 20: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
More importantly, that is where the water vapor will condense and become water at about 1-1/4” into the wall when the outside temperature is -40
![Page 21: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Inside temp. 720 out design temp. -40
Temperature at surface of inside wall.720 - ((X/ 22.27) x 760) = 320
Same math as before
720 - (X / 22.27) x 760) = 320
(720 – 320) = (X/22.27 x 760)
400 = (X/22.27 x 760) 400 / 760 = X/22.27.5260 = X/22.27
![Page 23: Where is the Dew Point](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a9f550346895dc82686/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
X = 11.71 720 - ((11.71/ 22.27) x 760) = 320
So if R-19 has a k value of 3.45 per inch, water will freeze at about 3” into the insulation.

Once the water condenses in the wall or ceiling we have problems!!!!!!!!!!!

If the water could continue its journey and escape outside the backside of the brick to the cold minus -4 0 outside temperature, the following formula substantiates that assertion.
720 - ((22.27/ 22.27) x 760) = - 40

Positive PressureWhere within the building, and what time of the year would we design positive spaces.
Make sure we do not have positive spaces on outside walls in the winter months!
