Who are BuildCert? October 14, 2021 By BuildCert is the Product Certification arm of WRc-NSF, a testing and certification organisation based in the UK with over 75 years experience of water supply. They put their knowledge of plumbing systems to use for you, by examining, testing and certifying water fittings. Their independent checks ensure that when you buy BuildCert Approved products, you can do so with peace of mind. Hydromx® has passed the BuildCert Chemical Inhibitors Approved Scheme and can use the BuildCert logo in the UK. According to BuildCert: “The longevity and efficiency of water heating primary circuits and boilers, including central heating systems, can be greatly improved by the use of chemical water treatment. The purpose of these treatment fluids in central heating systems is to: inhibit corrosion of vital metallic parts such as pipes and radiators, prevent scaling up of the system, and in particular the boiler. In addition the fluid should not cause damage to plastic and rubber components of the system and should have a low environmental impact. All chemical water treatment fluids certified by BuildCert are tested against the standard specification for the performance of chemical inhibitors for use in domestic hot water central heating systems drawn up by industry experts to ensure that inhibitors satisfy a minimum performance requirement. BuildCerts quality assurance requirements check that every bottle of water treatment fluid sold with the BuildCert CIAS logo on it performs as well as the last. BuildCert CIAS Approval allows boiler manufacturers, installers and consumers to have peace of mind that their hot water system are protected.
