TMV Type 2 and 3 - Thermostatic
Mixing Valve Testing and
Certification
Ensuring the safety and reliability
of Thermostatic Mixing Valves
(TMVs) is crucial. Certified TMVs
prevent scalding by maintaining
safe water temperatures, making
them essential for homes,
hospitals, and care facilities.
Meeting stringent standards like
BS EN 1111, BS EN 1287 for TMV2,
and the NHS D08 Specification
for TMV3, certified TMVs
guarantee compliance, durability,
and peace of mind.
Our TMV certification is vital
for manufacturers, installers,
architects, water suppliers,
healthcare facilities, and
ultimately consumers. It ensures
products meet safety and
performance standards, enhances
marketability, and ensures
compliance with regulations.
Kiwa Watertec’s TMV certification
process includes rigorous testing
and continuous assessments
in ISO/IEC 17025 accredited
laboratories, ensuring your
products meet the highest
standards of safety, performance,
and compliance.

KUKmat4 - Drinking Water Testing
Ensuring the safety and quality of
drinking water is paramount. The
BS 6920 standard rigorously tests
the suitability of non-metallic
materials used in contact with
water to prevent contamination
and ensure safety. Compliance
with BS 6920 helps protect
public health and maintain water
supply integrity.
Manufacturers and suppliers
of non-metallic materials
and products must comply
with UK water regulations for
legal installation and market
acceptance. Meeting BS 6920
requirements ensures products
are safe, reliable, and fit for
purpose. This compliance
supports research and
development, KUKreg4 and
KUKmat4 approvals, alternative
product approvals, and Regulation
31 DWI approval.
At Kiwa Watertec, we offer
comprehensive testing services in
our DAkkS accredited laboratory
in Germany. Our test methods
include odour and flavour,
colour and turbidity, extraction
of harmful substances, growth
of aquatic microorganisms, and
extraction of metals. We test
non-metallic water fittings,
coatings, lubricants, and seals,
supporting various approvals.
