Exposing plumbing and
drainage to influencers
One of the key features of the hydraulic tower is to
demonstrate that Geberit has water-saving products;
however, hydraulics play a main role in the system and
with the correct design of these systems, Geberit can
work towards saving one of the most crucial elements
and that is water. Influential bodies like government and
municipalities can see how the hydraulics work, and
everyone can all work towards making better drainage
designs. This brings a new dimension to theory and
practical. It must be borne in mind that the showroom is
also an integral part of the training where it shows the
installed product, making the hydraulic tower far more
practical in understanding. It also incorporates working
models. This is where design meets function.
Target audience
Geberit’s courses are mainly aimed at plumbers;
however, it also presents training to architects,
engineers, and plumbing merchants.

Courses at no charge
Geberit believes that knowledge is power and it shares
this with its installers so we can all work together
with minimal problems on site. Installers need to be
equipped the best way possible and with training, this is
the only route to go. PA
