I will reach out to a few associates I know in your area to see if there is anything specifically unique there. I know you go off the IRC with the exception of the UPC for plumbing. You are in a state that uses both code publications, so it may be slightly different than most.

Thank you Ben. A part of me knows I should want to be on the administration/office side, but the rest of me would rather be meticulous and installing. I do get purpose from knowing I gave a good product to the customer, that will probably operate for longer than they will; barring any manufacturer defect, or natural disaster. I bet a couple bucks my install will survive a reasonable earthquake! Settle down there, ego.

There's nothing wrong with confidence, as long as there's experience and knowledge behind it. I completely agree with you on the continuing to install passion. I realized my greatest joy was seeing my influence on others successes. That's why I decided to instruct full time, more rewarding for me at the end of the day.

Thanks Ben. Your patience and purpose are true gifts; and even more so given the state of things, and how difficult it can be. I hope I'm not making it weird, it's just the way I feel.

Where do you teach? I am attending a plumbing school in my home state.. I like your videos. How or what recommendations do you have to make someone to memorize all this code?
@BGsPlumbingClass3 жыл бұрын
The best thing you could do is familiarize yourself with the layout of the code itself. I've been teaching Plumbing for 20 years and I still haven't memorized the code. I do, however know what each chapter contains. That is the real challenge. So take your time and look through the chapters by topic- each section number that ends in a .0, like 508.0 is the start of a new topic followed by subtopics 508.1 and 508.2 etc.

So I take it that in Residential, backflows (double check valve types) are not required? Any when are they required? I've seen diagrams with vacuum breakers at the water heater, but haven't really seen them used. I only remember somewhere around 2006 (i think), that inspectors started asking for vacuum breakers at all hose bibs. I know water sprinklers have built in anti-siphon devices, but I rarely see them installed correctly (above all heads), cause Homeowner want to hide them from view.

There has been talk for several years that back flow devices were going to be required in residential areas. As of right now, I haven't heard of any actually being installed in this municipality- may be different elsewhere.
