A fixture unit is equal to 1 cubic foot (0.028 m 3) of water drained in a 1 + 1 ⁄ 4 inches (32 mm) diameter pipe over one minute. [2] One cubic foot of water is roughly 7.48 US gallons (28.3 L; 6.23 imp gal). A Fixture Unit is used in plumbing design for both water supply and waste water. Different fixtures have different flow requirements.

I don't believe that 1 fixture unit is 1 cubic foot per minute. one cubic foot is 7.48 gallons. if a fixture unit were one cubic foot per minute then it would also be 7.48 gallons per minute. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.172.153.197 23:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
Although 1 cubic foot (0.028 m 3) of air has a capacity to hold heat of 37 joules per kelvin (JK −1), the same volume of water has a heat capacity of 20,050 JK −1. [16] A metal pipe of water just 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter can carry as much energy as an 18-by-18-inch (46 by 46 cm) metal duct of air. [16]
The IEEE symbol for the cubic foot per second is ft 3 /s. [1] The following other abbreviations are also sometimes used: ft 3 /sec; cu ft/s; cfs or CFS; cusec; second-feet; The flow or discharge of rivers, i.e., the volume of water passing a location per unit of time, is commonly expressed in units of cubic feet per second or cubic metres per second.
