Frequency of Testing.

The frequency of testing depends on many factors such as appliance use, the area of use, user, age, and class of appliance. The majority of our clients begin testing annually. After several years of testing, we use these reports to then carry out a risk assessment with the client. With the results of this risk assessment, we then decide with the client to shorten or extend the frequency of testing.
