PLUMBING
(Easterling Correctional Facility)

Plumbing and pipe fitting involve much more than installing pipes or solving plumbing problems. The Plumbing program encompasses such areas as blueprint reading, fixture design, and appliance/fixture installation. Other areas of study include trenching, grading, and installing sewers, septic tanks, and drainage lines. The Plumbing program places emphasis on both residential and commercial applications, including swimming pools, water heaters, and solar systems.

Students who complete the following requirements earn the program certificate in Plumbing. Admission depends on the student’s ability to perform the essential functions identified for this program. Reasonable accommodations are considered. A high school diploma or GED is not required; however, students are required to have specifically documented ability to benefit. (See page 20, Admission to Courses Not Creditable Toward an Associate Degree.) Reasonable accommodations are considered.
