ON•TAP hosts PIRB Roadshow


ON•TAP Cape Town hosted the third ON•TAP PIRB Roadshow to assist plumbers in registering with the board.

The Plumbing Industry Registration Board (PIRB) provides a comprehensive registration system for plumbers. The PIRB monitors the performance of all their plumbers to ensure plumbing practices that protects the health and safety of the community.

This has been inaugurated because more and more metropolitans, local authorities and insurance companies require that only qualified PIRB plumbers are allowed to do plumbing works within their jurisdiction. End consumers are being informed to request plumbers for their PIRB Registration Certificates. The PIRB aims to raise the standards of plumbing in the public interest, as well as improve the consensus of plumbers and plumbing in South Africa.

The ON•TAP Cape Town PIRB Roadshow enjoyed a turnout of about sixty plumbers. Here, the plumbers were given the opportunity to raise questions and receive well informed answers. These PIRB events are necessary, because sooner or later all plumbers will have to register in order to purchase certificates.

These certificates will be available soon at ON•TAP stores, nationwide.
