A practical, artisan-level course for anyone starting out in the plumbing trade, from site helpers to self-employed fundis. You learn safe working, plumbing tools, pipe materials such as PPR, PVC, HDPE, galvanised iron and copper, and how to cut, thread and joint them. The course then covers cold water supply and storage tanks, hot water systems including solar water heaters, installing sanitary appliances, drainage, traps and venting, septic tanks, soakaways and rainwater harvesting, and everyday repairs to leaks and blockages, finishing with trade calculations, reading plumbing drawings and starting a small plumbing business. The course covers the classroom knowledge of artisan-level plumbing; practical skills need supervised workshop practice, and national examinations (KNEC) or trade tests (NITA) are registered and taken separately.
