DIN Standards Committee Heating and Ventilation Technology and their Safety

Overview

This document (EN 15378-1:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 228 "Heating systems in buildings", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). Working Committee NA 041-01-58 AA "Heizungsanlagen in Gebäuden" ("Heating systems in buildings") at DIN Standards Committee Heating and Ventilation Technology and their Safety (NHRS) is responsible for the German collaboration. This document specifies inspection procedures for the assessment of energy performance of existing boilers and heating systems. Heat generators types covered by this standard are: - boilers for heating, domestic hot water or both; - gas, liquid, solid fuel fired combustion boilers; - electrically driven and gas driven heat pumps; - thermal solar systems for domestic hot water, heating or both; - other heat generators types, such as cogeneration units. Parts of heating systems covered by this standard are: - heat generators, including generation control; - heating distribution network, including associated components and controls; - heating emitters, including components and controls; - space heating control system; - heat storage and associated components; - domestic hot water production system. This standard covers issues related to energy conservation and environmental performance.
