This unit specifies the competencies required to install sanitary appliances. It involves preparing simple working drawings, quantifying and cost
sanitary appliances, fixing sanitary appliances and testing and commissioning working of sanitary appliances. It applies in the construction industry

Benchmark or criteria to be used

1.Prepare working drawings
1.1 Drawings are identified and selected based on the working drawings.
1.2 scale of the drawing is determined based on the specifications.
1.3 Measurements are converted based on scale.
1.4 Symbols are identified based on best practices.
1.5 Sanitary appliances are identified based on the drawing
 1.6 Simple working drawings are Prepared based on specifications
1.7 Isometric working drawings are drawn based on best practices.
1.8 Manufacturers drawing of sanitary appliances are interpreted as presented.
1.9 Assembling of sanitary appliances is identified and interpreted as per manufacturers’ drawing

2. . Quantify and cost sanitary appliances

2.1 Materials and Supplies required for fixing are identified based on requirements of the job.
2.2 Schedule of sanitary appliances is prepared based on the drawing.
2.3 3.4 Sanitary appliances are costed based on best practice
2.4 Materials and supplies required are measured and estimated based on working drawings and specifications

3. Fix sanitary appliances

3.1 Tools and equipment needed for fixing appliances are identified based on the type of sanitary appliance.
3.2 Appliance positioning is determined based on working drawings.
3.3 Tools and equipment are used based on best practices.
3.4 Support for sanitary appliances are put in place based on manufacturers’ instructions.
3.5 Sanitary appliances are mounted based on best practices. 3.6 Parameter checks are done in accordance to industry standards.
3.6 Housekeeping is conducted based on best practice. 3.8 Personal Protective Equipment is used in line with occupational safety and
health regulations.
3.7 3.9 Safety and health practices are observed based on OSHA

4 Test and commission working of sanitary appliances

4.1 Functionality of the appliance is tested based on best practices.

4.2 Faults in appliance functionality are corrected based on best practices
4.3 The works are commissioned in accordance to job requirements.
