Basic Plumbing With Illustrations Revised Edition

This completely-revised edition brings this comprehensive manual fully up-to-date with all the latest plumbing codes.

It is the journeyman's and apprentice's guide to installing plumbing, piping, and fixtures in residential and light commercial buildings: how to select the right materials, lay out the job and do professional-quality plumbing work, use essential tools and materials, make repairs, maintain plumbing systems, install fixtures, and add to existing systems.

Includes hundreds of large, clear illustrations that show you what is required in isometrics, venting, traps, floor plans and layouts, DWV, septic tanks and drainfields, water supply, valves and faucets, hot water systems, roughing-in, maintenance, repairs, gas installation and swimming pools.

Extensive study questions at the end of each chapter, and a section with all the correct answers.
