VIEGA PREVISTA MEETS THE LATEST WATER
REGULATION GUIDANCE
Viega Prevista WC suites
now comply with the
Regulation 4 of the
Water Supply (Water
Fittings) Regulations of
1999 and have achieved
certifications with WRAS
and KIWA (KUKreg4).
To address industry
concerns about potential
backflow from WC cisterns
into the mains supply,
WRAS and KIWA have
updated their acceptance criteria for approval of WC suites. Evidence suggests
that in some cases existing backflow protections could be compromised and are
allowing ‘blue water’ stored in WC cisterns to enter into the mains supply via the
filling valve. The revised requirements are that a Type AG filling valve be installed
inside the cistern to allow for a physical “air gap” between the lowest point of the
water outlet and the critical water level.
Viega’s Prevista Dry WC element in construction heights 1120, 980 and 820 mm,
as well as Prevista Pure 3H and 3L cisterns, all include the required Type AG filling
valves that provides a complete physical air break between water discharge and
the water level of the cistern. This air gap must be at least 20mm, or twice the
inlet internal diameter of the inlet pipe, whichever is the greater. This ensures
compliance with the regulations regardless of the requirements of the bathroom
or washroom design.
