Building installations are one of the main sources of problems in buildings, even in recent constructions. For example, water distribution and sewage drainage account for more than 50 per cent of the problems detected in buildings.
Errors in these installations generally result in significant discomfort factors, reduced durability and damp problems, requiring interventions that are generally costly and inconvenient.
PROGRAMME TO REDUCE WATER CONSUMPTION IN BUILDINGS.
What is the AUDITÁQUA® programme?
AUDITAQUA® is a programme of water efficiency audits developed by ANQIP - Associação Nacional para a Qualidade nas Instalações Prediais, to reduce water consumption in buildings.
For interested organisations, ANQIP supports the implementation of ISO 46001:2019 - Efficient water use systems - Requirements for use.
ANQIP has created the ANQIP Certification of Compliance and Quality of Hydraulic Installations in Buildings, known as CertIHP, which may be granted to any entity that voluntarily requests it for the installations they execute, promotes or acquires, and that meets the requirements established by ANQIP for this purpose.
Joining the certification scheme requires a declaration of acceptance of the conditions of the CertIHP regulation, which can be requested from ANQIP, as well as the corresponding cost table.
