Written for designers and installers, this immensely practical book will also be of interest to technical staff of water undertakers, property services managers and students of NVQ and BTech courses. It was specially commissioned by the British Standards Institution and written for BSI by Bob Garrett, formerly of Langley College of Further Education and past President of the National Association of Plumbing Teachers.

Reviews:
A must for the working plumber: This is an excellent reference for the various regulations which apply to the plumbing trade. As legislation becomes more onerous, and the water regulations are tightened, you would be a fool to yourself not to have a copy to hand at all times. Should be a cokmpulsory item in any plumber's toolkit.
