pipework
Building's fluid channels
Pipework is a system of pipes considered collectively, especially in plumbing, heating, or industrial installations: The old pipework needed replacing throughout the building.
The term emphasizes the network as a whole rather than individual pipes.
In music, pipework refers to the pipes of an organ.
