Are there any specific requirements for plumbing installed above ground?


In addition to the requirements already listed, above ground plumbing must be protected against environmental conditions, accidental, mechanical and animal damage.

A regular inspection should be undertaken of pipework and water fittings to identify leaks or other issues. This will help to reduce waste, prevent contamination and save cost.
