Frequently Asked Questions

Can You Be Too Young To Start A Plumbing Apprenticeship?

A career in plumbing is both lucrative and secure, and if you decide to follow that path, you can be comfortable in the knowledge that you will have a well-paying job for years to come. With that in mind, though, when you've decided to start a career in plumbing at a young age, it might be useful to get a bit of help making sure you start at the best moment possible. Joining the troupe at Aptus Plumbing & Gas is easy, though, as we do everything we can to support our team, even the ones who haven't joined us yet. Reach out to us on (07) 3205 1991 to make sure any questions you have about plumbing jobs in Pinkenba are answered.

Starting a plumbing apprenticeship can be done in multiple ways. Receiving the relevant certification generally requires the completion of a traineeship and theory work, which most people do outside of school. In the last few years of high school, however, you can instead opt to complete both a plumbing qualification and you Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) at the same time. This apprenticeship can be completed during school hours, or students can opt to complete it part-time outside of their school day, depending on their requirements. In either case, the qualification you receive at the end of your training is just as valid as any other qualification, and you'll be ready to continue your education as necessary or start a successful career in plumbing. There's only one type of plumbing apprenticeship to complete, but multiple ways to do it.

Are Sewer Odours Harmful?

Finding out your home has begun to smell like sewerage is already frustrating enough, but you'd be right to wonder if the nauseous gasses present a threat to your health. Fortunately, Aptus Plumbing & Gas can help you relax and put your mind to rest in the event you're worried about a foul odour. For all questions about plumbing in Pinkenba, you can reach our team on (07) 3205 1991.

It can be irritating to discover your bathroom is shrouded in something unpleasant, but that doesn't mean your health is at risk. Sewerage produces a variety of inorganic gases due to the various anaerobic bacteria it contains, and while many of these gases are odouless, sewerage can take on a slight smell due to the presence of hydrogren sulphide. At concentrations of just one thousandth and one hundredth parts per million (ppm), you may being to notice an odour in your bathroom, though normally, these gases are kept out by means of a variety of devices, including vents and sewerage traps. As hydrogen sulphide will only affect your health at concentrations of 150ppm or higher, it needs to be 15,000 to 150,000 times more concentrated than when you first smelt it before it becomes a health hazard. Despite not being able to find these gases in dangerous levels inside your home, though, you can find them highly concentrated within the sewage system itself, so avoid trawling around your plumbing yourself and instead contact a qualified plumber to fix the issue at hand. With a chemical as foul as hydrogen sulphide pouring off of it, you'll smell your sewerage long before it presents a threat to you.

Do PVC Pipes Get Buried Underground?

Adding another building to your property can be an excellent way to get more value out of your land, but it can be hard to imagine where you'll put the new plumbing system without leaving pipes running everywhere through your backyard. Fortunately, as experts in all plumbing matters, Aptus Plumbing & Gas can help you understand all of the requirements for burying PVC pipes in your property. Reach out to us on (07) 3205 1991 to speak to our team today about plumbing in Pinkenba.

Properly sized trenches and a licensed plumber are required to install any PVC pipes underground on your property. There are government standards regarding the depths of these trenches, and they must be big enough to allow for all jointing, compacting, and inspection. When the concrete is poured the pipes may fall victim to movement, deformation, or flotation, so there must be precautionary measures undertaken to prevent it. Structural integrity is important, so the floor of the trench should be carefully inspected during excavation to identify and remove any pieces of loose debris that may be present, before bedding material is inserted to add support along the pipeline. While groundwater can pose a significant threat to PVC pipe that has been buried underground, plumbers have a wide range of solutions to this problem, including filling the pipeline with water or employing trench stops. Finally, the pipes will be buried under trench fill material, and once it has been compacted, you won't be able to notice the plumbing running through your backyard. While it is possible to bury PVC pipes underground to keep them out of sight, there are standards that need to be followed.
