Written Schemes of Examination for Clean Water Systems

Clear, compliant inspection planning for pressure systems

What a Written Scheme of Examination Involves

A Written Scheme of Examination sets out how and when a pressure system should be examined to ensure it remains safe to use. It identifies the parts of the system that require examination, the nature of those examinations, and the intervals at which they must take place.

The scheme is tailored to the specific system and operating conditions, ensuring examinations are appropriate, proportionate, and compliant with current regulations.

When a WSE Is Required

A Written Scheme of Examination is required for most pressure systems, including those used in heating, hot water, and pressurised plant installations.

It is typically needed when:

A new pressure system is installed
Existing systems are being reviewed or modified
Examination intervals are due
Insurers or compliance audits request updated documentation
Responsibility for when a system changes hands

Having a clear, up-to-date scheme in place helps reduce risk and avoid unnecessary downtime.
