LCL Awards Water Regulations (LCWR23) certificate is one of only a handful of courses that meet Water Regs UK's learning outcomes and assessment criteria.

The course is a necessary requirement for qualified plumbers (holding a minimum of a NVQ Level 2) hoping to join their local Approved Plumber Scheme (WIAPS) or WaterSafe.

It is also a suitable pre-requisite for several renewable technology qualifications, such as heat pumps and solar thermal, and may also be taken by learners on new entrants' programmes - Gas Managed Learning Programmes (MLPs) or plumbing NVQ, for example.

LCWR23 covers the background and legislation relating to the Water Regulations, including design and installation requirements for water fittings and pipes in both hot and cold-water services.

In addition to featuring internal water-based systems, such as WCs, baths and sinks, the qualification also covers the regulations relating to external water supplies.

The Water Regs UK-approved qualification is available from LCL Awards centres throughout the UK.
