Since a long time, I was thinking to get my home renovated and finally the process will start next week. I specially want to replace all the water and the drainage system fittings at various points like kitchen and bathrooms with the latest ones.

Plumbers are the right people to collect various information about the equipments and other things to be used and taken care of. Plumbers are basically responsible for the initial installation and later on with the maintenance of the plumbing equipments and plumbing is the basically dealing with pipes and tubes and various other plumbing fixtures for drinking water system and transport of waste.

Pipes made up of copper, brass, plastic can be used. Toxic material like lead is avoided. Hogh pressure pumps are used. Vents and drains are made up of plastic, steel and cast iron.

The most basic and most commonly used plumbing equipments are the pipes and the tubes. The basic difference between them is that the pipes are thicker as compared to the tubes and are formed via casting or welding while tubes are made through extrusion.

There are various other different plumbing equipments that are uses in buildings, huge factories etc. These are elbows, trees, unions, valves. These are used in a complicated setup.

Traps, drains, vents, Septic systems, Rainwater, surface, and subsurface water drainage, and Fuel gas piping,potable supply of hot and cold water are the various categories of the plumbing system.

One should not compromise with the quality of the plumbing equipments to be used as these can create problems in the home. New technologies are being used by the plumbers these days such as hidden cameras are used to detect the leaks and other defects.

Finally I had a clear picture of what I wanted. Plumbers were of a great help to me. They are highly talented people. They explained me everything I wanted to know. Now I also had a rough cost estimate in mind and am ready for the work to start.
