Funded by the Victorian Government’s Industry R&D Infrastructure scheme, the laboratory will test and certify new renewable energy technologies to ensure they meet efficiency standards and are safe for installation across homes and businesses.
This work will aim to help reduce emissions and ensure that the state’s transition to carbon neutral products is a safe and financially attainable process for all Victorians.
IAPMO Oceania managing director Paul Bonsak OAM expresses a great enthusiasm for the new facility and the impact that it will have on quality assurance within the plumbing industry as a whole: “We need to make sure that by developing new technologies and ensuring [their safety and viability], that we [also] do testing to ensure the safety of our community and the safety of our installers.
“This laboratory that we are constructing will do that.”
IAPMO chief executive Dave Viola also says that the unique facility is special and the only place like it in the world.
Alongside one of its most important partners, the Plumbing Industry Climate Action Centre (PICAC), IAPMO Oceania will make sure that products are not only safe, sustainable and resilient, but also that practitioners are properly trained to install them in the best way possible.
