How are plumbing and electrical systems installed?

Plumbing and Electrical Installations in Ekodome

The floor, deck, and foundation act as key points of connection for both plumbing and electrical systems. Conduits can be routed through these elements, providing a secure pathway for the various pipes and wires.

For plumbing, the pipes can be discreetly integrated into the structure, connecting through the floor, deck, or foundation as needed. The use of conduit systems is crucial in facilitating the organized passage of pipes, preventing interference with the overall aesthetics of the dome, and maintaining accessibility for maintenance and repairs. 

Purposeful placement of wiring for power outlets, lighting fixtures, and other electrical elements within freestanding spaces is advised. Much like the plumbing setup, conduits play a vital role in concealing and protecting electrical wiring while allowing for easy access when necessary.

We highly recommend working closely with professional plumbers and electricians to ensure a seamless integration of plumbing and electrical systems into the dome's design, while preserving both structural integrity and functionality.
