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.Table 1 shows the relative position of this standard within the set of EPB standards in the context of the modular structure as set out in prEN ISO 52000 1.NOTE 1In prCEN ISO/TR 52000 2 the same table can be found, with, for each module, the numbers of the relevant EPB standards and accompanying technical reports that are published or in preparation.NOTE 2The modules represent EPB standards, although one EPB standard may cover more than one module and one module may be covered by more than one EPB standard, for instance a simplified and a detailed method respectively.
