Severn Trent Water is the first water supply company in the UK to have all their Water Fittings Regulations Technicians (water inspectors) become CIPHE members.

CIPHE Operations Manager Danny Davis and National President Kevin McCallister, were invited to the Head Office of Severn Trent Water in Coventry, to present the CIPHE membership certificates.

Ian Mitchell, Fittings & Regulations Manager of Severn Trent Water, said it was an important decision to have all Severn Trent water inspectors as members of the Institute as part of its criteria.

“Members of the CIPHE have recognised qualifications,” said Ian. With all the water supply companies signing up to WaterSafe and being in partnership with CIPHE, it makes sense for our inspectors to join the professional body for the industry.”

Danny Davis said: “The Institute is committed to raising standards. We are delighted that Severn Trent Water has taken the step of enrolling its water inspectors as members. We hope to work with other organisations to promote professionalism wherever we can.”
