MEASURE PIPE SLOPE WITH YOUR PHONE Turn your iPhone into a digital torpedo level. Place it along the pipe to measure pipe slope or pipe fall in real time. • Inches per foot (in/ft) • Millimeters per meter (mm/m) Set a target slope to display a visual reference line. When your measured slope matches the target, the display turns green. Capture the reading and send it directly into the plumbing calculator with one tap. Note: Device sensors are approximate (±1–2° / ±0.2 in/ft). Always verify slope with a calibrated level for code compliance. SUPPORTS MAJOR PLUMBING CODES Pipe Slope Calculator includes the major North American plumbing codes: • IPC — International Plumbing Code (2024) • UPC — Uniform Plumbing Code (2024) • NPC — National Plumbing Code of Canada (2020) Select your governing plumbing code and the app automatically flags slopes that fall below the minimum required for your pipe size. TWO PLUMBING CALCULATOR MODES Find Pipe Slope Enter pipe length and drop to calculate the drainage slope or pipe grade. Find Pipe Drop Enter pipe length and slope to calculate the total drop required. Instant results include: • Total drop • Pipe slope (in/ft or mm/m) • Slope percentage • Code compliance status Copy all results to the clipboard with one tap. A live animated pipe diagram updates in real time to visualize the pipe grade as you adjust inputs.
