  • For devices and backflow protections: certificates (and reports) based on the EN1717 which you have already obtained for these items from other European certification agencies (KIWA, DVGW, NF ....)

It is essential that, during a water inspection, the inspector is able to correctly identify the item and find it in the Belgaqua list of approved devices. It is therefore important that you send us the correct brand names and model names as they are marked on the devices, the identification plates, the packaging, ...  The certificate will not cover devices sold under a different brand name or model name.
