Tech Plumbing

Plumbers install pipes for water, gas, sewage and drainage systems. They also install sanitary facilities such as lavatories, toilets, tubs, bathroom fixtures, showers, kitchen fixtures, drinking fountains and laundry equipment. Plumbers install pipe systems using both hand and power tools to cut, bend and thread pipes, and to make welded and soldered joints. Plumbers must also run tests on their installations to assure that the system is functioning properly and meets the Plumbing Code. They are often called upon to clear pipe lines and drains and to make repairs on faucets, valves and leaky pipes.
