All Air Conditioning systems with an effective rated output over 12Kw must now be regularly inspected by an Energy Assessor.
Regular inspections can offer a number of benefits, including:
  • Improvements in efficiency
  • Reduction of energy consumption
  • Lower operating costs
  • Lower carbon emissions
Inspections must be a maximum of five years apart. The first inspection to be carried out as follows:
  • for all systems first put into service on or after 1 January 2008, the first inspection must have taken place within five years of the date when it was first put into service
  • for other air-conditioning systems, where the effective rated output is more than 250kW the first inspection must happen by 4 January 2009
  • for other air-conditioning systems, where the effective rated output is more than 12kW the first inspection must happen by 4 January 2011
