The valves have undergone, and passed, stringent testing by independent UK certification body Kiwa. The KUKreg4 certificate issued by Kiwa, a global top 20 testing, inspection, and certification (TIC) organisation, is equivalent to a WRAS certificate.
The certification process involved testing samples of each valve size, to ensure that they comply with the legal requirements for the water regulations, on design, installation, operation, and maintenance.
To replicate the lifestyle of the product, some Kiwa tests can involve months of repetitive cycles, followed by more endurance testing. The certification process also ensures the products are appropriately marked for traceability and are accompanied by suitable installation instructions.
Debbie Mertens, Supply Quality Assurance Manager from Wolseley, said: “Wolseley has been working to improve our current Jet pressure reducing valves to keep the same features the popular Jet range has always had, but with added flexibility of installation for both hot and cold water, now approved by Kiwa.”
