Overview
Diploma in Pipe-fitting - Level 3
This Diploma in Pipe Fitting – Level 3 calls out to all individuals interested in learning more about pipe fitting to either land a job in plumbing or to progress in their current employment. This course poses as a wonderful way to amp up your knowledge, skills, and expertise as desired, as the course will get you familiarized with both the theories and practicals at the same time. This course is also ideal if you simply want to learn pipe fitting to understand the mysteries and to fix your home plumbing systems.
The basics of plumbing to the most advanced aspects such as drains and vents in a water distribution system are covered through the very compressive modules of this course. The first basic laws of nature such as gravity, pressure and water seeking its own level will also be taught, so that you can base you pipe repairing decisions based on them.
You will come across chapters that will talk about backflows, pathogens, and the most important principle-hydraulic principles. Moving on, you will realise the importance the tutors have placed upon understanding the different plumbing fittings, plumbing repairs, and plumbing tools through this course.
