And are they compulsory?
Air conditioning Energy Assessments are now a legal requirement under The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 SI 2007/991 amended by SI 2007/1669, SI 2007/3302 and SI 2008/647.
As your Maintenance provider we would like to make you aware of Legislation which is relevant to your site and your equipment. It is a Legal requirement in the U.K to have an Air Conditioning Assessment, most commonly known as a TM44 inspection, carried out on Air Conditioning systems with more than 12kw of combined Cooling Capacity.
The inspections are required to be carried out in an independent manner every five years by a qualified assessor with a Government Accredited Certificate. The aim of the report is to look for energy saving opportunities relating to the system within the building. Sampling can be used depending on the make, model and age of the units on site. A site survey is carried out, an extensive report is compiled and lodged on the Landmark portal, and a Certificate is issued which is valid for 5 years .
We are able to offer you TM44 inspections, if you wish to find out whether your building meets the threshold for this requirement please get in touch.
