The « Check Your Heating » Campaign

LabelPack A+ is excited to launch its “Check your Heating” Campaign which aims at raising awareness on the Energy Efficiency labels and providing with the necessary information related to these labels to consumers and installers.

The consortium has identified that most of heating systems are replaced when they broke down, often in emergency situations and in winter when it is less possible to make a well-informed choice. This campaign also aims at running up a check-up and identifying the energy efficiency of consumers’ installation when good conditions are met for giving them the necessary time to think about their future heating installations, when the time to change it will come.

As such, within the LabelPack A+ project, a tool has been developed to create energy efficiency labels which could be used by both, consumers, and installers, to identify the energy efficiency of heating installations.

In addition to humoristic and informative videos on the labels, this campaign includes a “social media selfie contest” which will be hold between May 2nd, 2018 and June 8th, 2018! Don’t miss the chance to win one of our amazing prizes, among them a DJI Spark Drone of a value of 379 euros!

“Check your Heating Selfie Challenge”

The challenge will only occur in the following countries between Wednesday, 2nd May, 2018 and Friday, 8th June 2018:
