Anderson,

Are you using Simple Hydraulic Calculator and have an AHJ questioning -Q 
in pipe? The negative sign indicates direction. To please this AHJ, 
select menu item "Reports" -> "Options" and in the lower right of the 
dialog, select "group pipe by path". Then print a new report.

This option reorders pipe in the report from the most remote heads to 
the source and flip Q's accordingly. If this is a gridded system you may 
still encouter -Q's but that's unavoidable sometimes if the report is 
going to indicate direction of flow accurately.

If this isn't your problem then please excuse my assumptions but I hope 
I've helped you out. Whether you choose to enter piping from source to 
remote area (like I do) or from remote area to source, calculations will 
be the same. Have a great day!
