Drinking water hygiene across the entire life cycle of an installation: from planning to maintenance.
VDI 6023 Part 1 is a key guideline for the hygienically flawless planning, construction and operation of drinking water installations. We explain concisely who it applies to, who bears responsibility and which further rules and standards apply in addition.
All drinking water installations are covered by the guideline, including mobile installations that are installed on properties and in buildings or used on watercraft. It provides guidance on the planning, construction, commissioning, use, operation and maintenance of all drinking water installations.
Flawless drinking water quality is teamwork, from planning to maintenance.
Overall responsibility lies with the operator, whether an entrepreneur, operator or owner, within the meaning of the Drinking Water Ordinance.
It is important that all parties involved who are responsible for planning, construction, operation and maintenance are familiar with the guideline, in order to ensure flawless drinking water quality.
Hygiene is the sum of all efforts and measures that help prevent harm to health and discomfort for the individual user.
Specific details on operating drinking water installations are contained in VDI 3810 Part 2 and VDI 6023 Part 3.
