WRAS information

WRAS APPROVAL (ALSO KNOWN AS WRAS LISTING)

The Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (or WRAS) is an organisation that aims to advise, promote and standardise best practice amongst everyone involved in the UK water industry.

To achieve WRAS approval or listing, the individual product or fitting must pass mechanical and water quality testing carried out independently by WRAS. In the case of Mechline products, this involves every component of a tap, faucet or pre-rinse (i.e. the base, hose, bowl filler, spout, riser tubes and gun are all tested).

WRAS states that ‘A water fitting should not cause waste, misuse, undue consumption or contamination of the water supply and must be of an appropriate quality and standard.’ A selection of our water products including AquaJet models, and the entire AquaTechnix range have received WRAS Approval (please take a look at the individual item in the catalogue, which will be listed with the WRAS Approved logo). If you require a copy of the WRAS certificate for a particular product please contact us, or take a look at the product listing directory on www.wras.co.uk.
