Win the argument
on site, not after.
PlumbSANS turns South African plumbing standards into plain-English answers — the exact clause, the hard limit, and a ready defense against a QS or architect trying to cut corners.
SANS 10254, Clause 4.3 — sample answer
What it means: the relief valve has to release before the tank pressure gets dangerous — plain English, no legal prose.
On site: the hard line, why it matters, and how to counter a QS trying to sign it off anyway.
Illustrative sample screen
The code book is 400 pages. The QS gave you thirty seconds.
Plumbing standards are written in dense regulatory prose, split across tables, sub-clauses, and cross-references. On site, nobody has time to search a PDF while an architect argues a point of compliance in front of a client.
No more paging through PDFs on a job site with one bar of signal.
No more guessing which sub-clause actually applies to the fitting in your hand.
No more losing a dispute because you couldn’t cite the reference fast enough.
From question to defense, in one screen
No generated guesses. Every answer is curated, clause-referenced, and reviewed before it ever reaches the app.
Ask it like you would on site
No clause numbers, no legal prose. Type the question the way you would say it standing next to the trench.
Matched to the right standard
Search is scoped to the standard you are working in, so you get the clause that actually applies to the job in front of you.
Answer-first, every time
The exact SANS reference, the hard limit, a plain-English explanation, and — for the contested ones — the argument that wins the dispute.
Built for every language on site
Author a question and answer once in English — every plumber on the crew reads it in their own language.
Standards covered
Curated, answer-first Q&A libraries — scoped so search only ever matches the standard you have open.
