Crime prevention
starts with a
hot doggie bath
The Stiebel Eltron Integrated Heat Pump (WWK 302 H)
product and high-quality workmanship (installation)
from Rivers Projects and Plumbing were donated to the
Tshwane Municipal Police Department (TMPD) K-9 Dog
Unit via a donation by Plumb-it Online in Centurion.
By Eamonn Ryan
Managing director of Rivers Projects
& Plumbing Services, Frank Crisafulli,
says, “The TMPD sent out a request
asking for the Tshwane community to
support their K-9 unit with products
– due to them being a non-profit
organisation, and this was picked up by
Plumb-it Online who supplied the Stiebel
Eltron Integrated Heat pump including
the fittings and piping required.”
The K-9 unit looms large in urban policing,
being responsible, after four to five months of
intensive training, for crowd control, narcotics
detection and even bomb detection. However,
their accommodation north of Pretoria had no
access to hot water, which meant the dogs
had to be washed with cold water. When
In response, Rivers Plumbing installed a
300ℓ Stiebel Eltron heat pump at the TMPD
K-9 Unit – one of many CSI initiatives it
undertakes with its various partners such as,
in this instance, Stiebel Eltron and Plumb-
it Online, supplier of taps, sanitaryware,
heating systems and more. Plumb-it Online is
celebrating 21 years and have lots of in-store
and online promotions. You can visit them at:
