The COVID-19 pandemic has seen an increase in the purchase of plumbing products such as toilet seat bidet douches, handheld bidet sprays and trigger sprays, and other bidet type products that are connected to toilet water supply outlets (bidet products).
While many housebound Australians may be more inspired to complete odd jobs at home now than ever before, DIY installations of plumbing and drainage work including bidet products could put the health and safety of you and your family at risk, and it’s also illegal.
DIY installation or installation by unlicensed persons may mean that the bidet product is attached to a domestic water supply without the appropriate cross-connection or backflow protection. This could result in faecal contamination of your drinking water supply and even neighbouring water supplies.
Contamination of water supply can cause infectious diseases.
If you’re supplying bidet products, you should be aware of installation and certification requirements and your responsibilities under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).
