EN 12201-2 Installation Testing of Piping

The EN 12201-2 standard is an essential document that provides guidelines for the installation testing of piping systems. This service focuses on ensuring that plumbing and water systems within buildings meet strict quality standards, enhancing safety, reliability, and performance. Compliance with this international standard ensures that all relevant parameters are met, which is crucial for sustainable design and operation.

Installation testing involves a series of checks to verify the integrity of piping installations before they go into service. This process includes hydrostatic testing, visual inspection, leak testing, pressure testing, and other specific tests as outlined in EN 12201-2. The goal is to identify any defects or issues that could compromise the system's performance post-installation.

The scope of this service extends beyond mere compliance; it also contributes significantly to environmental sustainability. By ensuring that pipes are correctly installed and functioning optimally, we help reduce water wastage and ensure efficient use of resources. This aligns with broader sustainability goals and helps in achieving certification for green buildings or facilities.

Our team uses advanced equipment calibrated according to international standards such as ISO 9001:2015 and EN 473 to perform these tests accurately. Each test parameter is meticulously recorded, ensuring transparency and traceability throughout the process. The final report not only certifies compliance with EN 12201-2 but also provides actionable insights that can be used for continuous improvement.

Real-world application of this testing ensures that buildings are safe environments where water distribution systems operate efficiently without leaks or bursts, which is critical in both residential and commercial settings. In infrastructure projects like hospitals or large-scale facilities, such precision can mean the difference between operational efficiency and costly downtime.

Our service ensures that all plumbing and water systems are thoroughly tested according to EN 12201-2 requirements. We provide detailed reports highlighting any discrepancies found during testing along with recommendations for corrective actions. This proactive approach helps facilities avoid potential issues down the line, saving time and money in the long run.
