We have integrated eye/shower stations. Our facilities staff inspects the eye washes weekly and the showers are monthly. I’ve never noticed them timing the test. Also, I’m not aware of an inspection test time requirement. If there is one,
please let me know where to find it.
Thank you,

Trying to get the best practices here.
How does your institution interpret ANSI 358.1-2014 and safety shower testing?
I know eyewash stations are 5 minutes per week.
What is the frequency you use for testing showers and the duration?
Thanks in advance.
