The highly trained and highly skilled plumbers, who are members of the Southwest Pipe Trades Association affiliated UA Local Unions, install, repair and maintain drinking water and sanitary water systems, making them vital members of the pipe trades.

Their work protects the nation’s health by ensuring drinking water and wastewater systems function as designed.

The Southwest Pipe Trades Association supports a wide variety of plumbing work

Plumbers install, repair, service, and maintain potable water systems, which includes the systems that provide the water we consume, bathe in, clean and cook with, and in many instances, the water we use to dispose of sewage.

Contractors affiliated with SWPTA Local Unions are available to tackle any plumbing project in the region, which includes work at schools, medical facilities and businesses. Having highly trained plumbing professionals install and maintain the plumbing systems at hospitals, nursing homes and other industries is especially important, as these facilities have some of the most complex plumbing systems in existence. These systems often incorporate gas lines, heat pumps, solar thermal panels and more to heat the water.
