ÖNORM EN 16798-17

This European Standard specifies the common methodology and the requirements for inspection of air conditioning systems in buildings for space cooling and/or heating and/or ventilation systems from an energy use standpoint. It can be used to fulfil the EPBD requirements (Energy Performance of Buildings Directive 2010/31/EU [9]) as well as in other contexts where such inspections are specified. The methodology specified in this standard deals with indoor climate problems that can be due to the systems inspected. This standard applies to both residential and non-residential buildings equipped with: - air conditioning system(s) without mechanical ventilation; or - air conditioning system(s) with mechanical ventilation; or - natural and mechanical ventilation system(s). This standard applies to: - fixed systems; - accessible parts that contribute to the cooling and mechanical ventilation services. This standard is also applicable to some systems for which the Directive does not require inspection, such as: - fixed systems of less than 12 kW output; - ventilation-only systems.
