Plumbing for Commercial Operations

Plumbing for commercial operations presents it's own set of  problems for professional plumbers.

Lets take the example of multi family home plumbing and plumbing for restaurants for instance. When a plumber get's a call from one of these types of operations we really have to put on our thinking caps. Apartment buildings present a complex set of issues in themselves.

Multi Family Housing Plumbing

Plumbers have to consider the number of units in the building, the type of water system the building is supplied by, is this city water piped in or is this an older outlying building utilizing ground well water supply. We have to locate main water supply lines and main water drains. If there is a problem with a clogged sink it may be right there located in that unit however the clog may be 1 or 2 units below. A knowledge of how multiple housing unit plumbing works is imperative in the plumbing business. That's where licensing and state board continuing education can play a huge role in ensuring qualified plumbers are working in your area.

Other commercial operations such as restaurants provide their own set of plumbing issues. Restaurants are required by law to conform to health standards. Commercial kitchens utilize industrial grade Garbage Disposals, Ovens, Ranges, Dishwashers, etc. all these have to be supplied with water and gas as well as be able to drain efficiently.

Grease trap systems must be installed and properly maintained. Water heaters must be set at an optimal temperature to ensure employees avoid scalding and dishes pots and pans get cleaned safely.  
Backflows also must be regularly tested to ensure waste water is not mixing with supply water.
