Course description
Safe and readily available water is important for public health, whether it is used for drinking, domestic use, food production or recreational purposes.
This course has been created to give delegates an overview of the types of systems encountered in a range of buildings including hospitals and industrial installations.
The types of water services and the importance of comfort, safety, compliance and the use of data are all covered. So too are the legal requirements and regulations, as well as the things that can go wrong.
