Faucets, Fixtures, & Pipes Plumbing Services

What is a plumbing fixture anyway?

Whether you’re constructing a totally new home or business, or simply replacing the plumbing fixtures or piping within your existing home, it’s no job for the average DIYer. The very concept of a plumbing system is a very complex and intricate system--a literal maze of piping that would give anyone without specialized training a massive migraine. But the pipes within the walls and under the floor aren’t the only parts of a plumbing system that requires thought and knowledge.

A plumbing fixture is defined as “any part, such as a sink, toilet, faucet, etc. that is attached to a system of pipes that carry water through a residential or commercial building.” This means that anything that uses water and is connected to a plumbing system is technically a plumbing fixture, including things like washing machines, dishwashers, and bathtubs.

The choice is yours!

Choosing fixtures can quickly become overwhelming due to the amount of materials, styles, and types of fixtures there are, within their own categories. As time has moved forward, we as humans have worked to optimize and create newer and better versions of these fixtures, adding to the pool of choices.
