Designed for the third-year
plumbing apprentice, Plumbing 301 uses a straightforward,
clear writing style and the most current plumbing and gas code
references to deliver the "need-to-know" information for both
commercial and residential plumbers.
Coverage begins with basic
installation practices, and progresses to include blueprint reading,
the National Fuel Gas Code, surveying instruments, and
special chapters devoted to connections to the math and science of
plumbing.
Discussions of water heaters,
water treatment, trench safety, and electrical controls and wiring
have been added to round out the thorough coverage.
With two chapters on preplanning
and electrical controls, this book will give readers the tools they
need to be successful as they continue their journey into the
plumbing industry.
The PHCC Educational Foundation Plumbing
Apprentice & Journeyman Training Committee is composed of
contractor business owners, apprentice instructors, industry
representatives and professional educators with vast experience in
the plumbing profession.
Features:
