As part of many of our contracts with water companies across the UK, we complete the installation and refurbishment of regulatory sample taps.
Over the last 3-4 years we have refurbished and installed approximately 75 separate points for Yorkshire Water, this includes both walk-in cabinets and roadside kiosks, along with sunken sample pits to ensure gravity flow and new connection to mains where required.
Prior to a new batch of sample tap works starting in early 2019 and to improve our continual quality standard for these installations, our workforce on this contract have undertaken the BPEC Plumbing Training in relation to Water Regulations compliance and fittings, delivered by Yorkshire Water.
As a nationally recognised course, we are delighted to soon hold accreditation in this area, along with a planned extension course for groundwork pipework. The information learnt will be put into practice, as we resolve more challenging sample points across the Yorkshire Water area.
