Book is the same as an online course.

If you are thinking of enrolling on a plumbing course, whatever you do, do not enrol on the OLCI course. They have copied this book word for word, picture for picture, diagram for diagram, question for question and sell it for over £500. Just buy this book from amazon for under £20 and you have the complete theory course as sold online by OLCI for over £500.

Even better than the JTL book
|
I am currently studying at a College where they use the JTL book as the core text. I bought Muscrofts 'Plumbing' as I've always found it useful to have more than just the one reference. Then if I dont understand one explanation I can try the other and see if that makes more sense.
Throughout this year I have referred to Muscrofts book time, and time again. Like its JTL rival it has a chapter on each of the subjects that are assessed in the technical certificate. But I found the descriptions and illustrations easier to understand, and the multiple choice questions at the end are a fantastic bonus, and really help you prepare for the tests. In fact, they are as good as those covered in the JTL's revision book, which you have to pay twenty odd pounds for.
I would highly recommend this text to anyone wanting to learn the basics of plumbing, which is not just hot and cold water, central heating etc, but also lead work and guttering. The only disappointment is that Muscroft has yet to produce a book aimed at Level 3.
