Under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, air conditioning systems with a total output of more than 12kW of air conditioning are required by law, to have a TM44 Air Conditioning Energy Assessment.
What is an Air Conditioning Inspection Report?
An Air Conditioning Inspection Report gives building owners and their tenants information and advice on how to improve energy efficiency and reduce electricity use, operating costs and carbon emissions.
Air conditioning systems must be inspected by an accredited air conditioning assessor every five years.
Generally, a 12-kilowatt cooling capacity air conditioning unit is used in the following types of premises:
General office & retail spaces up to approximately 200 square meters (m²)
Offices with high levels of IT and electrical equipment up to 100 m²
If the site manager does not have a report then the company could receive a hefty fine from Trading Standards.
If you operate air conditioning systems and are unsure if your business needs to comply with the law, contact us now and we will give you free advice on your responsibilities.
