Recent changes to the Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) guidelines have seen the DET standards updated to improve water quality outcomes, for new and refurbished Victorian DET assets.
Lead-Free products
Commencing February 2019 and following careful deliberation by the VSBA, Principal Design Consultants, Services Engineers, and Building Contractors for VSBA and school-led projects are required to install plumbing products and fittings that are “Lead-Free” or “Safe”.
These products may include those manufactured from Stainless Steel, Copper, Plastic, and Copper Alloys.
