How To Maintain Your Emergency Safety Shower

In addition, all units must be checked and activated weekly. It is also important to keep a full history of these inspections to keep your warranty active.

A regular service contract with Aqua Safety Showers will give you complete peace of mind that your life-saving equipment will work first time, every time.

Activate Weekly

Visually inspect and activate your safety shower on a weekly basis to keep your site compliant (and your health and safety officer happy!).

To make it easy, Aqua have compiled this handy checklist.

What To Check For

* Is the area well-lit and free of obstructions?
* Is the safety shower easily visible and well signed?
* Are there any signs of rust, damage or leaks?
* Is the shower clean and sterilised?
* Does the unit operate with ease?
* Does the water flow within 1 second of activation?
* Is the water dirty or cloudy?
* Does the shower deliver tepid water? (between 16-38�C / 60-100�F)
* Is the shower protected from frost?

For self-contained or tank-fed showers, it is also important to monitor the water level in the tank.
