In this debut episode of Mastering Wisconsin Plumbing, host Ryan Boggs walks you through the rich history of the Wisconsin Plumbing Code—how it began in 1914 under the State Board of Health, and how it evolved through DILHR, the Department of Commerce, and today’s DSPS.

Discover how plumbers have always played a vital role in public health, and why understanding the “why” behind the code matters just as much as knowing the rules. Whether you’re an apprentice just getting started or a journeyman working toward your master license, this episode sets the foundation for what’s to come.

Topics Covered:

• The origin of the Wisconsin Plumbing Code
• Agency transitions from 1914 to today
• Why plumbers are frontline public health workers
• What this podcast will tackle in future episodes
