You won’t get paid more if any at all if you’re taking classes. You also don’t get paid more in the long run even if you have taken classes. Don’t listen to that guy. Go get a job at your local plumber/plumbing company and learn that way. You can also start to build up your customer base on the side while you’re working for another company. I’d start doing it even before you have your license. When you do get it and you’re ready take the leap and don’t turn back. Work for yourself. Once you make enough money and have steady income get insurance ASAP and go start passing out your cards to contractors, apartments managers, anywhere you can think of. You’ll make a doctors salary within your first 4 years if you’re good with people. Best decision I’ve ever made. Little warning though, you work nonstop. When you get off of work you’re still working and overthinking about work but still it’s way better than having a boss and you’ll make really good money.

I used to work in H.R in the supply chain industry, which took massive hits in revenue during and after covid. Plumbing started as a fascination the first time I paid a plumber to put new water lines in a home I was flipping. Turned into my main source of income working for a great company that is eager to train. My job includes elements of mechanical engineering and electrical as well, so the sky is the limit on what you will be exposed to.

@@rules9387 You shouldn't have any problem getting started as an apprentice for any sizable company. Average starting is around 18 an hour here. It's not enough to support a family but you'll quickly learn enough to start helping friends and family with side jobs. If you work full time, you should be ready for Journeyman test by two years in, and you should expect an 8-10 dollar raise upon licensing. More raises for certifications like backflows and water treatment systems. If you go hard for 5 years you can get a master plumber license and your value increases another large margin... All of the cool skills, places and people you will meet and help along the way open all sorts of other doors. And when I'm working, time FLIES by. I actually enjoy plumbing as much or more as I did playing with LEGOs as a kid.

Little trick on those sensors if you undo the nut and break off the tiny sensor wiring then slide that thermistor as far into the thermostat as you can then tighten it back up and it’ll keep working. Most of them will work that way forever. Rheem must’ve had a bad bunch bc I’ve had the same issue a lot here lately even on my new installs.

My biggest tip would be to avoid trade school and just get a job at a plumbing company that's willing to hire somebody with no experience. You'll learn just as fast but you'll learn from people actually doing the work rather than people that are just teaching a class. You'll also get paid to learn instead of pay for trade school.

Difficulty will depend on your natural mindset. Some find HVAC easier and some find plumbing easier. Pay will be great with either one.

Hvac you’re going to be in attics quite a bit. Covered in insulation and absolutely cooking. Plumbing ( service side ) you’re going to be in some pretty gross bathrooms, kitchens , basements etc.. I started at a company doing both but I found plumbing to be a lot more lucrative. Especially when you finally understand Drain , waste and vent and can do remodels or new construction. Throw in a little heating knowledge and depending where you live you can be making easy 150-200k a year if not more over time.

I’m considering being a plumber but I have digestive issues, what do you guys do when you’re at a customers home and you have to go to the bathroom? I’m sure for number one if worst comes to worst then you grab a bottle or something but what happens when it’s number two? Lol

Great question! Some will avoid using their restroom but I don't worry about it. If they plumber can't use the customers restroom, then there's a problem. Using the restroom is something everyone does. So use it and be courteous while you're doing so.

Hello sir I have a big problem and can’t seem to figure it out. Toilet doesn’t flush, called a plumber he pulled and augured the toilet, he went 75 feet in the main drain. That did not work so he augured the kitchen sink, and washer drain tube because they all run on the same line “kitchen to washer to toilet to bathroom sink to shower then out to the city”. Still did not work and he basically gave up. Now the next day “yesterday” I had another plumber come out he pulled and augured the toilet and ran 150 feet down the main to the city network. “Nothing” he just kinda left said he will do some research after doing another call somewhere else. Never heard from him. I heard maybe it might be a vent problem so after youtube I went to the roof and put a garden hose down the vent and with a jet nozzle flushed it for a few minutes. Then I had about 10 perfect power flushes in the toilet. I thought I fixed it and went to sleep and woke up and it flushed about 2 more times and then it stopped flushing again. I forgot to mention yesterday after the 2nd plumber left I installed a brand new toilet myself with a perfect insulation everything went perfectly installing it. So now I am $600 down with no results. When I ran the washer and dishwasher water started backing up in the kitchen. Any thoughts you might have with be much appreciated. Thanks for your time

Sounds like they aren't resolving what's causing the drain line to clog. Either a problem with the piping or a problem with what is going down the line. Or both. They need to run a sewer camera to learn what's causing the issue.
