APSP Requires Testing by Accredited Labs

The Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP), an ANSI-accredited standards developer, has indicated that spa manufacturers in the United States intending to meet the requirements of ANSI/APSP 14 will need to ensure that all testing is done by an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory. In some cases the spa manufacturer may pursue accreditation and in other cases the company may outsource the tests to an accredited lab.

ACLASS accredits laboratories to ISO/IEC 17025, and as part of the ANSI family is well informed on the ANSI/APSP 14 requirements. More information on ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation can be found here, where you can learn about how to become accredited and accreditation requirements. You can also search for laboratories that are already accredited at our Company Search. For more information, call Matt Holofchak at 703-836-0025, ext. 207, or send e-mail to Matt.
