CASE STUDY



HAWS 4-STEPS TO COMPLIANCE HELPS LEADING
HAZARDOUS WASTE DISPOSAL COMPANY MEET SAFETY
STANDARDS & ENSURE RELIABILITY

Eastern United States

BACKGROUND
A global leader in the treatment and disposal of hazardous waste was looking
to install a tempering system for their existing emergency shower and eyewash
equipment at a facility in Pennsylvania. The facility’s Project Engineer requested
a quote for a Haws tempering skid, having received a quote from another
potential vendor. In discussions with the Project Engineer, they explained they
were looking to make an investment in the tempering solution to comply with
ANSI Z384.1 requirements. The site already had ten combination showers and
eye/face wash units installed in the facility without tempering. This is a common
issue with 78% of the emergency shower and eyewash equipment in a typical
facility not working properly*. Haws shared this data and explained if their
primary goal was compliance, investing in the tempered water skid was likely
not going to help them achieve that larger goal. It would only ensure warm water
from non-compliant equipment.

PROBLEM
Rather than simply provide a product quote, the Haws team explained the
4-Steps to Compliance approach to achieving ANSI Compliance. If compliance
was the ultimate goal, following this process would be key to delivering the
overall results they were hoping to achieve.
By starting with “Step 1” in the process - utilizing a complimentary onsite ANSI

compliance survey of all their existing emergency showers and eyewashes -
would help ensure a complete view of their compliance and non-compliance
issues. In advance of the site survey, the client also provided the required details
to properly size a tempering skid which was then discussed during the onsite
survey.

RESULTS
The ANSI Inspection results identified 100% of the existing units were not
working properly and were non-compliant, thereby unable to deliver proper first
aid in the event of an emergency. In addition, some of the emergency equipment
was not appropriate for the application, there were multiple issues with too
much or too little flow, non-compliant flow patterns and, in a few cases, the
equipment was not installed to align for simultaneous use of both the shower
and the eye/face wash.

SOLUTION
During the inspection, the Project Engineer was introduced to the AXION®
FOR MORE INFORMATION technology and immediately liked the fact that it solved many of their flow
issues without the need to replace the complete unit – simply retrofit existing

units at a fraction of the cost of a full replacement. Following the survey, the
[email protected] existing ten combination showers were upgraded or replaced and the tempering
888.508.8065 skid installed.

By following steps 1 through 3 of the Haws 4-Steps to Compliance, the Project
Engineer was able to remedy the larger issue of non-compliance in multiple
areas. Investing in tempering is only one element of ANSI compliance – and
spending money on tempering without checking the functioning of the showers
can be a waste of money if a facility is not evaluating the complete ANSI
compliance requirements.





































ABOUT THE PROGRAM
As the industry leader, Haws can help bring awareness to the hidden dangers
of inadequate emergency response by providing your facility with a proven
road map to compliance. Our 4-Step to Compliance process is a “total solution”
approach that helps customers achieve ANSI compliance, and ensures properly
functioning emergency equipment. By taking advantage of the Haws 4 Steps
to Compliance, facilities are able to ensure equipment meets the most recent
ISEA/ANSI Z358.1 Standard. In addition, the facility has reliable functionality and
appropriate first aid capabilities in the event of an emergency.
