Plumbing practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how Plumbing Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real Plumbing exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The Plumbing exam spans 12 domains: Introduction to the Plumbing Profession (3% of the exam); Plumbing Safety (16% of the exam); Tools of the Plumbing Trade (9% of the exam); Introduction to Plumbing Math (9% of the exam); Introduction to Plumbing Drawings (12% of the exam); Plastic Pipe and Fittings (8% of the exam); Copper Tube and Fittings (8% of the exam); Cast Iron Pipe and Fittings (8% of the exam); Steel Pipe and Fittings (8% of the exam); Introduction to Plumbing Fixtures (5% of the exam); Introduction to Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV) Systems (7% of the exam); Introduction to Water Distribution Systems (7% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Plumbing Safety 16%; Introduction to Plumbing Drawings 12%; Tools of the Plumbing Trade 9%; Introduction to Plumbing Math 9%; Plastic Pipe and Fittings 8%; Copper Tube and Fittings 8%; Cast Iron Pipe and Fittings 8%; Steel Pipe and Fittings 8%; Introduction to Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV) Systems 7%; Introduction to Water Distribution Systems 7%; Introduction to Plumbing Fixtures 5%; Introduction to the Plumbing Profession 3%.
