RAH Consultancy undertook a project to oversee the testing to the requirements of the Water Regulations and the anti-scald measures of the TMV3 Scheme for Crosswater. Like many organisations the specialised knowledge of the testing requirements of these schemes and the necessary knowledge of materials of construction requires time and experience to be quick and successful and this RAH Consultancy can supply

Following the success of this minor project RAH Consultancy was retained on a yearly basis to develop a major project for Crosswater who wished to offer complete ranges of products that were WRAS Approved.

The project entailed:

• A detailed study of each complete model
• A detailed study of the drawings
• A detailed study of the materials of construction
• The provision of advice to the manufacturer of each model as to changes to the manufacture process.
• The provision of advice as to the selection of materials of construction that met the requirements of the Water Regulations
• The completion of all the application forms for each model and liaison with the testhouse during testing.
• In the event of failure of a device the provision of remedial actions so as to ensure future success.

During the four years over which the project ran RAH Consultancy completed over two hundred applications for Crosswater products.

RAH Consultancy also acted as the companies Technical Manager and on their behalf attended the technical Meetings of the Bathroom Manufacturers Association and Buildcert reported on any technical issues to the company.

We worked with Crosswater on the completion of all the requirements of the Construction Products Regulations as these came into force and successfully completed their changover on time and to the requirements of the Regulations.

Our association continued until Crosswater’s internally recruited staff were sufficiently advanced to take over the role.
