*2021-09-12*

I could of just got the book. I have to purchase the book in this app. I bought the 3 pack and there is a few things it goes over but I got the same information from a free app.One app did not have nothing just refers me to a bogus website that’s down.You have to purchase the actual plumbing code book if you really need some help.For 13$ that was a rip off. Needs way more information and a way to see diagrams. I hope it gets updated.
