! Henco's rule of thumb is that the pressure loss of the riser divided by the sum of the heights of the floors should be less than 1. If this is not the case, Henco considers the pressure loss too high. In that case, adjust the sizing of the pipes and recalculate the pressure loss again until the fraction is smaller than 1.
