Risk Assessment Description:

This tap and valve installation safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps plumbers, heating engineers and Gas Safe registered engineers ensure safe installation of water fittings and valves.

It covers planning, competence, site conditions, water supply protection, fitting condition, pipework integrity, PPE, isolation, testing and emergency arrangements. The checklist aligns with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, BS EN 806 and relevant HSE guidance on hot and cold water systems.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑installation checks – confirm design, risk assessment and material suitability before work starts.
  • During installation – verify each step is carried out safely and to standard.
  • Post‑installation sign‑off – confirm testing, commissioning and documentation are complete.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be resolved before proceeding.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999; BS EN 806; HSE guidance on hot and cold water systems.

Following this checklist helps protect occupants from water contamination, leaks and pressure failures, supports compliance with statutory duties, and reduces the risk of costly re‑work or service interruptions.

Are the safety checklists suitable for UK workplaces?

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
