Drinking water certificate launch

*CSA International, a leading certification and testing organisation, has launched a programme to test and certify products to the requirements of the new CAN/CSA B483 Drinking Water Treatment Systems standard. *

This certification program will be available to assist manufacturers in demonstrating compliance to the new 2009 Canadian Building Code and the new Quebec Plumbing Code which reference the CSA B483 standard.

"CSA International holds the number one market share in plumbing certification in the US and Canada and we have more than 30 years of expertise in this product area," said President Randall Luecke.

Examples of new product certification offerings include water softener units, drinking fountains, under counter drinking water dispensing systems, plumbing fittings with integral water filtration systems, point of entry systems, household refrigerators with water filtration dispensers and other similar devices.

To minimise redundant testing, CSA International will also recognise testing data for components independently certified by an accredited certification organisation to the NSF/ANSI Drinking Water Treatment Units Standards as appropriate.

CSA International is a provider of product testing and certification services for electrical, mechanical, plumbing, gas and a variety of other products. Recognised in the US, Canada and around the world, CSA International certification marks appear on billions of products worldwide.
