Why learn about Plumbing and Sanitary
• Plumbing is as important to your residential or commercial building as oxygen
is to the body. Plumbing services ensure that water comes in and out of your
house properly. Although plumbing is widely associated with water related
services but that is not all that it pertains to- plumbing includes installation and
maintenance of heating systems, water boilers, furnaces, washing machines
and much more. A faulty pipe or leakage means excess moisture inside the
house which can cause mold and fungus to grow. A clogged toilet or sink can
hinder your daily routine tasks. So to ensure that your household is running
proper and maintained plumbing systems, you need to get them checked
every few months.
Why learn about Plumbing and Sanitary
• Plumbing is used to ensure safe delivery of water. Clean water usage
is made possible only through plumbing which is often taken for
granted.
• It brings comfort and beauty to our living as we are able to use it in
several functional areas such as kitchens and bathrooms with such an
ease without having a thought of what it would have been if there
was no supply of clean water for us.
• Lack of safe and affordable water supply leads to a number of water-
borne diseases and viruses. According to World Health Organization,
1.4 million children die due to such diseases every year. Untreated
human waste and fecal matter are responsible for this which is why
plumbing holds so much importance.
