The CORGI plumbing scheme was launched in 2006 initially in response to further changes in Building Regulations helping its members comply with changing Government legislation. As the scheme is developing CORGI aims to bring the same broad range of member benefits to plumbing scheme members as the gas scheme.
The membership scheme is on offer to current gas scheme members and others who want to take advantage of the benefits offered by CORGI and can demonstrate the relevant competence and experience.

There are two categories to the CORGI Plumbing Scheme:
- Plumbing appliances: The new installation of a w.c. macerator, urinal, bidet, washbasin, bath and / or shower tray in new and existing dwellings. Also, where plumbing appliances are replaced and services are upgraded, eg, upgrading to meet Water Regulations, these are notifiable under the CORGI scheme.
- Un-vented hot water storage: The installation and replacement of un-vented hot water storage system (exceeding 15 litres capacity) in new and existing dwellings.
