The Importance of Plumbing:

Without sound plumbing principles and practices our water and sanitation systems would harbor communicable diseases such as SARS.  It's critical to follow code when installing and working on Plumbing systems.  Any cross contamination can lead to a disastrous outcome.  The licensing of a Plumber is a comprehensive process and a critical safeguard to protect public health.
