Plumbing Inspection Definition:
Plumbing refers to the system of pipes, fixtures, valves, and drains responsible for supplying potable water and removing wastewater within a home or building. A properly functioning plumbing system ensures clean water delivery for drinking, cooking, and sanitation while safely disposing of waste through drainage and venting systems. During a home inspection, plumbing components such as supply lines, drainpipes, water heaters, and fixtures are evaluated for leaks, corrosion, proper water pressure, and compliance with local building codes.
