Our Commitment 🛠️
Economy Plumbing Supply is dedicated to providing a website experience that is accessible to everyone — including people with disabilities (visual, auditory, cognitive, motor) — and beneficial to all visitors. We believe inclusivity is essential.
Standards and Conformance
To guide us, we follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, published by W3C. These guidelines help ensure content is:
Perceivable – users can perceive content (e.g., text alternatives, captions).
Operable – users can navigate and interact (e.g., keyboard accessible).
Understandable – content is clear and predictable.
Robust – content works across devices and assistive technologies.
Current Status
We are partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 AA. While much of the site is accessible, some areas may not yet meet all success criteria. We are actively working on improvements.
Measures We Have Taken
Reviewed design and content against WCAG principles.
Integrated accessibility checks into our web development.
Trained our team on inclusive design and accessibility.
Conducted periodic testing with real users and automated tools.
Known Limitations
Despite ongoing work, you may notice:
Some images without proper alt text.
PDF or archived material may not be fully accessible.
Videos may not have captions or transcripts.
We’re evaluating these and aim to resolve issues on request or in future updates.
Compatible Environments
Our site is designed to work with modern browsers and accessibility tools:
Browsers: latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari
Assistive tech: screen readers like NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver
We recommend updating your browser and assistive software frequently.
