What is an Air Conditioning Energy Assessment ? The inspection will examine the refrigeration and air movement equipment that are part of air-conditioning systems, and their controls. It will also examine any documentation that helps to understand the systems, or indicates the extent to which the systems have been maintained. The energy assessor is also required to estimate whether the system is suitably sized for the cooling loads in the treated spaces, and to provide advice on ways in which the performance of the system might be improved.
The aims of the inspection are to:
- The purpose of the inspection and report is to ensure that building owners or managers are provided with basic information regarding the efficiency of the air-conditioning systems that they control, together and
- with advice on how the energy efficiency or effectiveness of these systems might be improved.
Which systems require inspections ? The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections)(England and Wales) Regulations 2007 require inspection of all air conditioning systems with rated outputs over 12 kW
- for air-conditioning systems, where the effective rated output is more than 250kW the first inspection must happen by 4 January 2009
- for air-conditioning systems, where the effective rated output is more than 12kW the first inspection must happen by 4 January 2011
From 4 January 2011, if the person in control of the air-conditioning system changes and the new person in control is not given an inspection report, the new person in control of the system must ensure the air-conditioning system is inspected within three months of the day that person assumes control of the system.
