WHAT IS A STEAMFITTER / PIPEFITTER?

  • Cut openings for pipe in walls, floors and ceilings using hand and power tools or machines.
  • Select type and size of pipe required.
  • Measure, cut thread and bend pipe to required shape using hand and power tools.
  • Install supports, valves, piping and control systems.
  • Remove and replace work components and reactive systems.
  • Weld, braze, cement, solder and thread joints to join pipes and fabricate sections of piping systems.
