best book for nvq
this book is the best i have read for the nvq qualification together with treloar gas instalation technology they should give you a very good understanding of modern plumbing practice

Good but not perfect
A good book but not detailed enough. We use this as an additional training resource here at PPL Plumbing Training in York. As with the Level 3 version it seems to be aimed at younger learners. It is easy to read and gives a fair amount of coverage but we believe there are more comprehensive level 3 books out there.

Plumbing NVQ: Level 3 & 3
This is a good book for self study. It is well structured, with clear diagrams and easy read print. It is in many cases better than the lecturers. It covers cold and hot water, and also Central Heating. Its section on Electrics is praiseworthy. This book is an essential for all beginners or those revising their knowledge. It is essntial for any student or keen DIY person who wants go get to know the industry...buy it and read.
