Latest reviews of Plumbing Formulator app for iPhone and iPad
This app would be half decent if it had anything I could actually use. Im a first year plumber and the only thing I found useful was the temperature conversions you can find anywhere. Nothing on the properties of gas, densities, relative densities I couldnt even find anything on grades. You think for 4$ they could at least at the properties of gas sheet since most plumbers do gas fitting. Save your money!!!
So many things can be added .. Spoke with them and they said soon they will ....must have app ....
Nothing usefull for plumbers here - total rip-off - get your money back --
Bought the application and I can use it, but the one I wanted was the one with the formulas shown on photo. Guess thats another application. Bill
Does not calculate right I entered 20 ft of cast iron 4 in pipe and it told me it weighed two point six pounds
