\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When buying a commercial dishwasher<\/a>, it is important to consider whether it is WRAS approved. It is a legal requirement for your business & therefore something you need to consider before buying. Cater-Kwik<\/a> has 4 machines in stock that are WRAS approved; CK1543<\/a>, CK5575<\/a>, CK2555<\/a> & CK2575.<\/a>\u00a0The information below will help to explain why it is important to have a WRAS approved machine<\/p>\n

What is the Requirement?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a legal requirement that any water fitting or appliance that is connected to, will carry or will receive water from the public mains water supply must comply with the Water Supply (water fittings) Regulations* or Scottish Byelaws.<\/p>\n

Example applications would include commercial appliances such as commercial dishwashers<\/a> or glasswashers<\/a>, as these are connected to a mains water supply feed to work.<\/p>\n

It is the responsibility of a property owner to know which regulations apply to their circumstances & ensure compliance. Laws are typically in effect between the boundary of a property & the point of discharge as illustrated below.<\/p>\n

About WRAS<\/strong><\/p>\n

The purpose of WRAS is to contribute to the protection of public health by preventing contamination of public water supplies & encouraging the efficient use of water by promoting & facilitating compliance with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations & Byelaws in Scotland.<\/p>\n

WRAS has four core objectives:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0To raise awareness & understanding of the Water Fittings Regulations*, through marketing & communications, advice, consultation, education & professional development.<\/li>\n
  2. To provide approval scheme, processes & guidance to enable organisations & individuals to demonstrate compliance with the Water Fittings Regulations*.<\/li>\n
  3. To provide cost effective support to water companies by providing guidance to enable consistent interpretation & enforcement of the Water Fittings Regulations*.<\/li>\n
  4. \u00a0To represent the UK water supply industry as one voice on the Water Fittings Regulations\u00a0& contribute to the development of relevant guidance, codes of practice & standards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What is WRAS Approval?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \u2018WRAS Approved\u2019 status is (and can only be) granted directly by the Water Board Regulatory & Advisory Service. WRAS Approval is the best way to demonstrate compliance with legislation to water board inspectors as all the UK water suppliers accept it.<\/p>\n

    What is a WRAS Approved Product?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    A product (such as a glasswasher or dishwasher) that has been sent to WRAS by the manufacturer to check for full compliance with regulations & bylaws.<\/p>\n

    A WRAS approved product has passed all checks & holds a certification that the components have been tested under pressure & the appliance is of a safe & suitable build quality to be attached to the UK water system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
