Joke lol
Learned a few things it was fun
Not bad I like it definitely helps refreshing up on things..Keep it rolling and maybe more harder questions to help out the ones much more 😉 ✌️
First of all, you insert pictures of things that have nothing to do with the questions. then the permiting questions, in most of the Midatlantic you don't need to pull a permit in order to replace a sink, toilet, and or a water heater. very enjoyable.
It was a good refreshment course I love it
Lot of questions are missing leading Had some good questions but not written by a real plumber
@sthelenaplumbing I agree. The very few I got wrong I would definitely argue. I would like to see what they considered correct!!
A few of the questions are very poorly written and lame.
So NYCMasterplumber got every answer correct, I'm from California and I know some of the answers are wrong. Perhaps in NYC a 1/2" house main is permitted, and perhaps an angle stop is used to throttle the water flow, but not here.
For some of the questions, I think the locations may vary. The answers associated with a few of the questions is wrong.
I enjoyed the quiz, I'm continuing to learn...
For which of the following do you need a plumbing permit to replace?.... In Massachusetts and many other states E-All of the above
YIPPIE 74 out of 74 FIRST TRY
Some different nomenclature. Some questions installed an answer I DID NOT INTEND.
I'm a jack of all trades, and the master of non,lol. Came out with a "B". The names of some things were different in this part of the world.Was very interesting and a test of knowledge. I will try again.Thanks for the qwiz!
Thought this was interesting and I got 91% correct which is probably better than the Dumber Plumber that we hired whose job had to be redone by a different contractor.
awesome

Some questions were worded a little strange but it is a good little test. An aerator is for reducing volume for conservation. Temperature of 120 on water heater is to prevent scalding.
