Hi,
I have some experience with WaterCad and now for the first time I need to create a model with Water Meter and Backflow preventer. I appreciate if anyone could give me more information on how to model this two elements and what are important things to pay attention on. System will consist of 2" domestic water pipe connected to water main at the street, have water meter and backflow preventer device and run to supply drinking fountain and restroom at the end. I have pressure info at water main and need to figure out pressure at line end (restroom). Thanks!
