Answer:
That depends on the plumbing system, but typically high rise buildings have water systems fed from their base. For every 30ft of climb, water pressure drops about 1 atmosphere (14.7psi) of pressure. So if you started with a municipal water supply of 50psi then you’ll be down to very little pressure by the 9th or 10th floor.
Explanation:
Sufficiently tall skyscrapers feed water to reservoirs in upper floors and then all the water to drop from there, producing higher pressure in the lines without ridiculous pumping demands.
