Plumbers
Licensed professionals in the plumbing shop maintain and repair supply lines, drainage systems, and fixtures used for water distribution and waste disposal. They also work on new construction installations.
Each plumber at the university received extensive training as an apprentice before becoming a licensed journeyman. They are responsible for all plumbing fixtures, including faucets, toilets/urinals, sinks, drinking fountains, sanitary/storm pump systems, and hot water heat exchangers. The plumbers also repair, maintain, and install de-ionized water and reverse osmosis water systems, safety shower/ eyewash equipment, and whole-building hot water mixing valves, along with domestic hot water heating systems.
