    Thanks for that.
     I have another question. Why do we in the tropics have to have hot water
     when washing hands . The average temp of cold water is around 80 F and
    would
     never go below 75f. The sanitation process with the sanitizer does not
     require hot water. Our hands will never freeze and the protein would not
    set
     nor will the fat. We cannot see any logic in HW.

    In other words What is the minimum temperature of HW?
    Can we put one non return valve on the hose inlet system as opposed to the
     end of the hose as an antisiphoning device. We have a 1"in comming into the
     factory and this travels for about 50 feet, along this line we have four
     hoses which wash down separate rooms. The rooms are receival, eviscerating,
     filleting and packing. If we have a 1" non-return valve at the point of
     entry into the factory would this satisfy the requirement. We cannot buy
    end
     of hose antisiphoning devices in Fiji.
    Do your need to have knee operated wash basins in toilets?
