When you're working as part of a team on a commercial plumbing project, two-way radio communication saves time, money, and frustration. Plumbing jobs go so much more smoothly when you can radio to the person at the other end of the line to turn water sources on and off or check pressure gauges. Next to your wrench and pipe cutters, your plumbing two-way radios are a must-have.

Same goes for residential plumbing work. Construction companies like to know the plumbers they hire have brought their A-Game, and nothing says professional like a plumber who works fast and efficiently in close two-way radio contact with his assistant on the job. Whether you're working directly for a residential plumbing client or as an independent contractor hired by another company, everyone wants to know an essential part of living in the first world (running water) is in the hands of a smart plumber.
So what kind of plumbing walkie-talkie does a business savvy plumber buy? For starters, they work with UHF radios. UHF is hands down the handheld radio of choice for work that happens both in and out of doors. Beyond UHF, you'll want to think about the needs and the budget of your particular plumbing business.
Motorola makes some of the most widely used job site business two-way radios on the market. A plumber's work sees a lot of water and perhaps a few bounces, so you'll want to choose a solid, durable business two-way radio that's built to last. Motorola makes just such a radio in their RDX series models. Motorola RDX walkie-talkies are built to military specifications 810 c, d, e, f, and can handle extremes in temperature, moisture, salt, fog, shock, and vibration. Motorola's RDX two-way radios come IP54/55 rated, too. Motorola doesn't mess around when it comes to business radios for people who work hard. The RDX series radios are built with a die-cast metal chassis that's housed in a durable polycarbonate casing. You'd have to try to break it.
The RDU4100 offers 10 channel radio communication and doesn't have a display. Up from there, the RDU4160d features a front panel programmable display and 8 channels. All of Motorola's RDX two-way radios are customer programmable via a PC and free for download CPS software (customer programming software, requires a cable that's sold separately). The 2-watt radios carry a broad range of up to 250,000 sq. ft and up to 20 floors!
