Step One: Check you meet the following requirements to become a member:

In order to join the WaterSafe RPZ Valve Tester scheme, Testers must have:

• A recognised qualification in RPZ Valve Testing. The full list of qualifications we accept is here.

• Have an up to date calibration certificate for their test equipment, which meets the Approved Installation Method (AIM) requirements. See here.

• WaterSafe approved businesses and RPZ Valve Testers must commit to the terms and conditions.

• Have £2 million of public liability insurance and, where appropriate, £5 million of employers’ liability cover.

Step Two: Sign up to one of the four Approval Schemes who make up WaterSafe:

• WaterSafe has four Approval Schemes that offer an RPZ Valve Tester sector and the route to becoming approved by WaterSafe is through one of these schemes.

• Find out which scheme best suits you and fill in your application form – don’t forget to select the option to join WaterSafe when you fill this in.

• If you’re already a member of APLUS, Watermark, WIAPS or SNIPEF schemes, just ask them how to get signed up to WaterSafe. This may be done automatically on renewal.
