IAPMO R&T, North America’s premier third-party certification body for plumbing and mechanical products, has earned approval to begin certifying weather‐based irrigation controllers to the U.S. EPA’s new final specification for the WaterSense® consumer product‐labeling program, the first outdoor product category eligible to earn the WaterSense® label.
In an effort to help current and prospective listees weather these trying economic times, IAPMO R&T is again freezing all of its fees in 2012, continuing to deliver the same outstanding service and the most credible Marks of Conformity in the industry at 2010 prices.
IAPMO R&T has been certifying solar thermal products, both collectors and systems, since the technology enjoyed its first heyday in the mid-1970s. With the demand for solar certification skyrocketing once again amidst the global push for environmental sustainability, IAPMO R&T remains a manufacturer’s best ally in showing compliance to the required standards, both in the United States and Canada.
SunEarth, a 31-year-old solar thermal product manufacturer based in Fontana, Calif., recently had one of its Liquid Flat Plate Collectors, a solar water heating implement, certified and listed by IAPMO R&T, marking two decades of partnership between the two organizations.
